As featured on 乌鸦传媒's Newsroom, read how studying abroad in South Africa and interning for the U.S. Congress inspired Alonso Lee’s views on philosophy and politics. 

"During my abroad experience, I got involved in an exchange student club which allowed me to meet tons of new students from other countries as well as the local students! It was a great opportunity for me to learn a bit more about the culture and student life and definitely helped me adjust to living there! Most of my experiences with these students were very positive and with pushing myself to go out my comfort zone to try and build relationships with others, I now consider some of them to be my closest friends!" - Lynia Morris, Psychology 26'

"While I was very nervous about studying abroad since I was going alone, I had a great social experience while in Korea. A large part of it was due to being a part of the Hands Up for Gathering International student club, organized by Sogang University students. I met a large majority of my friends from all around the world through the club and constantly participated in fun activities throughout Seoul. I also lived within the all-girls dormitory at the University and had plenty of friends within my hall. Every day, I would hang out with someone and walk around the city neighborhood to shop, exercise, or just talk." - Alexis Salomon, Business Economics & Finance 25'

Living abroad in a totally new place was the scariest and best thing I did for myself. It was the first time I felt completely independent and got to explore parts of myself that I didn't know existed completely free from things at home that could have or have influenced me otherwise. I learned to trust myself more and how to not only push outside of my boundaries but also how to build them, all while exploring and eating my way through one of the most beautiful places in the world.
