Spring 2019 Participant
That to truly grow and learn you need to push the boundaries of what you believe you are capable of. I didn't think I'd be able to handle several months on my own in a foreign country when I'd only left the U.S. once before, for a week-long cruise. However here I am and I've grown considerably because I chose to challenge what I felt I was capable of.

Christian Anthony Encarnacion, Spring 2015 Participant
I had the privilege to work with an group of students from Germany, Norway, Uruguay, and from California's UC Irvine on social entrepreneurship and social business projects throughout my semester at HKU. Working with these guys was the most challenging, terrifying, thing I've done - it was also a wake up call to what the rest of the world is working like and how I should work to keep up, both in school and professionally. Traveling around southeast Asia and experiencing the most beautiful beaches in the world, great food, and excellent conversation from good company was nice too.

Fall 2015 Participant
Hiking was definitely my favorite part of this program because I was able to talk to local students while enjoying some the most amazing views I have ever seen. I would highly encourage anyone studying at HKU to join the hiking club or at least go with some locals.
