I had so much fun and would recommend this to everyone!
by: Mia Bianco - United StatesProgram: EF Gap Semester in Australia, Thailand, & JapanThis program was so special and I had so much fun. We did such cool things like a hot air balloon, visiting the Great Barrier Reef, working with elephants in Thailand, a mindfulness retreat and visiting the beautiful temples in Japan. The people on my trip were amazing and I walked away with some really close friends. I will always cherish the memories I made on this trip.
