The going away gift
Give them something they will use every week, and keep for years. For a son, a daughter, a friend or a partner heading off for a semester or a year.
They went before you. Their words are in the journal.
“Living in a new country for 6 months is becoming a citizen of this country for 6 months, try to match as much as possible the habits and brings all the benefits of this new culture home and share them with people”
“I was really excited to leave for my exchange, but once I arrived, it felt overwhelming and I realized being away from my family for such a long time was going to be rough. What made me overcome it is when I started making emotional connections (friends) and finding my routine in my new city.”
“Being far from home and sharing the same experience as so many others made it easy to connect. Within just a few days, we formed our first bonds, and we were lucky that our group met early on and stayed together throughout the entire semester”
As a former Erasmus student, I know how life changing studying abroad can be: friendships, challenges and personal growth.
I created the Study Abroad Journal to help students document their adventures and keep those incredible memories alive for years to come.
Give your students a way to document their journey, reflect on their growth and create lasting memories.
