Screenwriting Study Abroad Programs

Going abroad has been the most rewarding, exciting and thrilling thing I've ever done. I have never laughed so hard, learned so much or seen the world more than I have while traveling. Going to move to a different continent for 4 months makes you realize how much there is to learn about yourself and what you're capable of. The independency you learn and keep with you is so important and learning to navigate your way around the world with ought your usual help makes you feel great. Ive met my very best friends abroad and still talk to them daily, the worst part about study abroad for me was having to leave the country that quickly became home to me. The culture, food, architecture and history is something that is one of a kind and you can't find anywhere in the United States. It really shows you how big the world actually is and how small you actually are, if I could do this again I would 1000 times over and over with ought hesitation. Dint take this experience for granted there's so much more I wish I did!

To begin with the positives, I felt as if this program was set-up to make sure students thoroughly got the most out of their time in Oaxaca, despite only having one month. We were able to go to all of the touristy spots, but also be introduced one where (and how to find) the hidden gems across the city! I feel like I definitely got to experience a lot of what Oaxaca had to offer within the month. And in addition to this, my coursework was very engaging and encouraged students to compare the class lessons with real life examples and current events. Through all of these experiences, it created a stepping stone for future adventures! My only issues were that some days were really packed and didn't seem like administration accounted for how tired students would be after 1 or 2 activities.
