“Knowledge is the creator of an unquenchable thirst; the more you drink, the thirstier you feel.”
Studying abroad with International Studies Abroad has widened my knowledge and horizons, provided me space for growth towards pursuing my passions, and cultivated my independence and personality. Being provided with an international exposure was imperative for my career building process. I wanted to study in a non-western cultural atmosphere, improve my French language skills, and interact with Moroccans on a day to day basis. Culture is not just about languages, food, appearances, and personal habits. This experience influenced my perceptions, beliefs, values, and the way I now view the world. I personally came to truly understand where other cultures are coming from. This experience has taught me how to think about a particular subject from different angles and prospects of the world. Through my study abroad program, I got the chance to venture out and explore most of Morocco on weekends.
