Studying abroad helped me develop valuable skills, making me more independent and empathetic.
July 01, 2025by: Liam OldsProgram: CIEE High School Summer Abroad: Diplomacy Studies in TallinI've had such a great experience! Studying abroad helped me develop valuable skills, making me more independent and empathetic. I have nothing but good things to say! The VIP visits to government buildings were incredible--having the opportunity to meet with Parliament members, bump into the Prime Minister in the hall, and see all of the sites where change is instituted was unforgettable. The visit to the International Centre for Defence and Security think tank was also very exciting, hearing from experts in an unfiltered way.
This program changed me!
