I am Greek, therefore I always wanted to live in Greece for some part of my life. This influenced me to study abroad in Greece, and ultimately led me to choose Webster Athens. In addition, I have family that lives in and around Athens, which also inspired me to choose Athens as the area that I wanted to study abroad in. I wanted to learn more about my family's culture, meet my relatives and new people. I wanted to learn more of the language, gain global experience, grow as a person, and become more independent. By studying in Athens, I was able to do all of that.
