Every day brought forth a new twist and adventure for us to explore, and I felt as if I saw all of Greece, even though I know I only scratched the surface.

Acropolis and me.jpgMy program to Greece was truly an exceptional experience, and I could not have asked for a more perfect study abroad program. The true integration into the culture of Greece was correctly displayed consistently throughout the program. At no point did I feel as if I were a tourist and felt properly immersed into the rich culture of Greece. Every day brought forth a new twist and adventure for us to explore, and I felt as if I saw all of Greece, even though I know I only scratched the surface.

I fulfilled many of my goals for the program and got to take in the many wonders Greece has to offer. My cultural lens expanded in ways I have never imagined and got a take on life outside the United States. My personal growth due to this program is something I feel I could never have accomplished otherwise, and I have a newfound appreciation for what is around me. I genuinely am thankful for the opportunity to participate in this study abroad program, especially with many others before it being cancelled due to COVID-19. The Business Law, Ethics and Sustainability in an Emerging Global Market program was one of the best decisions I have made in my life.
