A semester in South Korea during my second year at college was a meaningful period packed with experiences and new thoughts.

Joining AFS Intercultural Program in Switzerland for one academic year was an opportunity to unlock my courage to try new things, live in new places, and meet with new people.

I feel grateful to be surrounded by friendly people who inspire me that friendship across cultures has no limits regardless of diversity.
