Carpe Diem Study Abroad India

I could not have picked a better gap year option than this one! I left not knowing much about what to expect and I received more from this year abroad than I could have every hoped to achieve. For my first semester I traveled to India and my second I traveled to Bali, Indonesia. Every new place I went to ended up being a positive experience for me and I was constantly taken out of my comfort zone in fun ways. I also had the best overseas educators who traveled with me on my first semester! It was challenging at times being in a place so foreign, but every challenge I overcame helped me to become a stronger person and taught me lessons that continue to help me in my life back in the states. My first semester effectively prepared me to travel on my own and my second semester tested my travel abilities. Some other aspects that I thought were really cool about this program are that they don't allow you to have technology your first semester and they give you a lot of freedom to explore your surroundings.
