“Living with people from all over the world and learning how to deal with everything that comes with it made me realize that we learn more about ourselves by living, loving and sharing with those around us. Coming back from China Week, in November, was definitely a turning point for me. It was the first time I said ‘I am going home’ and the friendships made during that time have stuck until this day. Yes, it has been the most intense and challenging experience, but keeping an open mind has made it easier.”
