Loved Germany!

I really enjoyed my experience meeting people and making connections. Being able to have free time and explore Germany was very exciting and unique. However in class and during excursions we did not learn much related to the Global Entrepreneurship topic.

Be prepared to walk!

I would absolutely recommend it to a friend. The program itself is fun but very heavy in the walking. Some days we would walk upwards of 11 miles. The experience was amazing though. I’ve tried 4 different food styles and found that I like Indian food. The program was overall great but could use some more organization.

Independent in Berlin!
