Benjamin Ross Jensen, Winter Break 2016 Participant
It is stressed a lot that packing minimally will only benefit you on the study abroad experience and I found that to be true. Packing light will help you in the long run. Putting some time into learning about the culture and possibly the languages that you will encounter will also help.

Be open to really experiencing the culture and testing your boundaries.

Relating to architecture, the environment gave me new inspiration and goals in my career. I really appreciated the amount of green utilized in the majority of buildings in Singapore and how Japanese architecture stayed within the perimeters of tradition while at the same time creating new modern entities.
