Program Reviews:
Summer 2016 Participant
I learned that to truly understand a culture, you have to step away from the tourist attractions and spend time with local people in local spots. While it is important to visit the tourist hotspots, it is also important to be a traveler and not a tourist by allowing yourself to fade into the background and explore the country from a native's point of view.

Summer 2016 Participant
Bring copies of your passport wherever you go because this is the only form of identification that is accepted in most places while you're abroad.

Sean Patrick Murray, Summer 2016 Participant
I learned that you should not be afraid to step out of your comfort zone. Slovenia is a relatively unknown country, so many of us were unsure about going on the program just because there was so many aspects of the nation itself we had no idea about, but this fact allowed us to be more open minded throughout the whole experience.
