If you have the opportunity at your home university, I fully recommend jumping at the chance! Not only is it a way to meet new people and experience a new place, but you have the ability to challenge yourself and grow as a person. You will have cities and countries at your fingertips as traveling abroad is as easy as a train ride or short flight away! Here are some of my reasons I studied abroad:
1. The food.
2. To learn new things about yourself.
3. To meet new people.
4. Experience a new culture as a local.
5. For the pictures.
6. To become more independent.
7. To travel.
8. To dive out of your comfort zone.
9. It is a once in a lifetime experience.
