It’s funny; it feels like we went on the trip years ago when I think about how much I’ve done since I returned to America. But when I start going through the pictures and telling then retelling stories about our trip abroad it feels like it was just yesterday! I can’t say how much this trip has impacted my life. Going on this trip taught me so much more than any classroom or textbook could have. It taught me how to be more open to trying new things, foods, and drinks and has created an excitement in me to say yes to new adventures! And I know it sounds silly to say, but I feel so much more cultured having traveled in countries most people can only dream about visiting. For example, after returning home, I watched a German movie I had been wanting to see for quite some time, Goodbye Lenin!, and I actually recognized places and German words in the movie! I don’t think I’ve ever been so excited to see the Berlin TV tower or hear the word “Alexanderplatz” before! This trip really was amazing; getting to see so many historical places, both veterinary medicine related and not, all over Europe made me really appreciative of the opportunity most don’t even have the luck to consider!
As previous posts have already said, GO ON THIS TRIP!! You will not regret it! It is amazing, exciting, and life changing!! I’m already starting to save money so that I can visit Europe again sometime in the future!
