Studying abroad changed my life

I am so grateful I got to study abroad this summer, this whole trip changed my life. Immuring yourself in another culture helps you to learn way more than sitting in a class room. For one I learned Spanish and got to practice it more than I ever have sitting in a classroom. Learning about other culture first hand will make you see the world different and many times help you to realize how grateful you are. Everyday In Spain I sat on the beach and thanked the universe for giving me the chance to have such a great experience.  Being grateful attracts more circumstances to you and opens you up to another side of you that you might have never seen. Learning to live with a attitude of gratitude will make you happier and appreciate everything that comes into your life. Connecting with people all over the world really makes you as a person see things from different perspectives and gives you the chance to open your mind beyond your culture and everyday life. I really encourage everyone who is in school to study abroad and 99% chance you wont regret it. For those who aren't in school anymore, I really encourage you to still travel and open your mind beyond your own reality. I live by the saying " I would rather have a passport full of stamps than a house full of stuff"
