Study Abroad in Galway, Ireland with WorldStrides

Growing up, my mom always told me about her study abroad experience in Florence, Italy while she was in college. She described it as one of the best experiences of her life. Contrarily, my Dad talked about how he wished he had studied abroad. With these influences, it became a dream of mine to spend a semester in a foreign country. I would not call myself an adventurous person; I like my comfort zone quite a lot. However, I often find that my best experiences are when I push myself to go outside my comfort zone and explore something new. Studying abroad, especially with ISA, was the perfect way for me to do this, and it was the best decision I ever made.

I have always wanted to go abroad, and college seemed like a great time to do it. I love the idea of being able to take courses, therefore achieve my educational goals, while exploring a new country and having fun.
