like all good things in life, study abroad does too come to an end. I cannot express what studying abroad has meant to me, and how living in Brussels has changed me both personally and professionally. College is a time to learn about yourself and what it is that you want to do with the rest of your life, and studying abroad, no matter where you choose to do so, is just one more thing that will help you create your professional image and inspire you in your chosen path.
My experience was made special not only because I had the opportunity to study the European Union, because of the people I got to meet, the opportunities for travel I had and the chance to get to know and live with a fun Belgian family. So to all of those who made my experience abroad wonderful...thank you so much!
If anyone takes anything away from this blog, it is that studying abroad is really the best way to learn about another world and expand your horizons. And studying abroad is now more reachable to more students though scholarships, financial aid and other means that get you to where you want to be.
So a special thanks to the folks at the Gilman Scholarship Foundation, who helped me finance this trip.
