This summer I had the ability to travel for the first time outside of the United States and do an internship through Global Experiences. Through this trip, I not only gained professional experience that will benefit me in my future career, but I also gained a lot of strength. For anyone thinking of going through with Global Experiences, do it. You will have an experience of a lifetime. Read more about Kaylee's internship abroad in her student experience blog!

Having this experience has helped me grow as a person both professionally and personally! I've learned so much about what I love and the career I am getting into. Global experiences made everything so easy and gave me opportunities to try new things that I may not have done otherwise! I made churros for the first time at our cooking class and it was an odd experience I'll never forget! Of course, a trip to the Shard was an amazing experience too!
