There are many academic, professional, cultural, and personal reasons for spending a semester or two abroad, here are my top 10 reasons why you should say YES to becoming an expert on packing and unpacking suitcases:
1) On exchange you will expand your knowledge base and transform your educational experience
2) Study subjects that are not traditionally offered at your home university
3) Internationalize your resume and widen your career prospects
4) Help to prepare you for future endeavours and give you an edge in the professional world
5) Encourage you to move beyond your comfort zone in order to refine and polish your networking skills
6) Strengthening your knowledge of local heritage will allow you to develop a diverse outlook on historical events that are interwoven into everyday life
7) You will be able to think about life from a broader international point of view because you will have a sense of what life outside of your home border is like
8) Immerse yourself in another culture as you learn new ways to adapt to unfamiliar circumstances, cultures and customs
9) Do some soul searching, so that you can learn more about yourself and discover your life passion(s)
10) The most exciting reason is, you will get to go SIGHTSEEING and meet HOT boys
Fun Fact:
On exchange you automatically introduce yourself as; “Hey, I am ______. From _____.”
