This summer I had the amazing
opportunity to study abroad in Cork, Ireland (3 hours South of Dublin). It was
my first time out of the country and to say the least I was absolutely
terrified. I got on the plan in Chicago by myself to start my adventure. I got
off the plane in Dublin, passed through customs, picked up my luggage and sat in
the airport thinking what in the world have I gotten myself into. After a week
of tears, calls home, and realizing this is a once in a lifetime experience I
fell in love with the country and all the amazing aspects studying abroad had
to offer. Our world is continuing to become more global. Therefore why not
study abroad. Here are 10 reasons why you should study abroad:
11.
Studying abroad helps you learn about yourself
22.
Studying Abroad makes you have a whole new
perspective on the world
33. Future employers are extremely impressed
44.
You form new and amazing relationships
55.
As an individual you become more independent
66.
The food is INCREDIBLE
77.
You will be able to network with more people
abroad
88.
You will able to take thousands of breathtaking
pictures
99.
You grow up and change in many ways
110. You
will see the world in a new perspective
Why not? Even though I was scared
at first I have never regretted my decision. And you won’t either! Go on
adventure and you will have the time of your life!
“To travel is to take a journey
into yourself.”
