Study abroad is a great opportunity to travel to parts of the world I never would have expected to be able to go to! You learn so much about yourself and learn how to navigate new and unfamiliar places! My advice would be to not hesitate and make the most out of your abroad experience by taking every opportunity that may come your way! You never know how great of an adventure it may turn out to be.

The group trip to Hinewai Reserve was the most rewarding part of the program. This place stands out as a shining example of what can be accomplished when you dedicate yourself to bettering the environment. Getting the opportunity to meet Hugh was so lucky, and honestly inspiring, as he really showcases a lot of the virtues I love about people, and was more than happy to stop and chat with us students, even when we weren't scheduled to see him at all.

I think preparation for this trip is key. It is important to identify places you want to visit, or things you really want to do, and figure out well in advance when you will be doing them. But it is also important to go with the flow, and never pass up an opportunity to experience anything.
