Education faced heavy cuts this year, as it did last year and the year before that, and the year before that. You might not be thinking too much about…

The unique thing about our homestay experience is that it is also an exchange opportunity. I feel that the education system in a particular country is very telling in the sense that it shows you what the society values and what the social dynamic between individuals is like.

Speaking on stage in front of an audience full of hundreds of individuals is a wonderful but nerve-racking privilege. It is only natural to be intimidated by a large group of people whose undivided attention is focused on you. To be honest, I had also experienced ‘stage fright’. However, once I got up there and started speaking,…
{Original Image} Over the years, spring break has been highly romanticized in pop culture.
