WHAT'S ONE STORY OR IMPORTANT ASPECT YOU ALWAYS TELL PEOPLE ABOUT YOUR TIME ABROAD?
I was at an outdoor concert in Mar Del Plata for Carnival. There were over 100k people outside on the beach at this free concert. It was a blast. Not reckless or rowdy, families with children and elderly people roaming the streets as late as 2 or 3 am. I felt safe and the love everyone had for each other surrounded me.
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE CLASS WHILE ABROAD, AND WHY?
Food and Culture, I got to learn about the different culinary customs. I learned to make empanadas and the different methods of cooking. I learned how they originated and what is still popular today.
