Changed my life

April 19, 2025by: Mitch Spanier - United StatesProgram: USAC Italy: Torino - Intl. Business, Politics & Architecture
10

Studying abroad was the best thing I have done in my life so far. Not only was Torino a beautiful city with endless things to do, but it is where I met lifelong friends and memories that will never leave. I went here not knowing what to expect and came back a whole new person!! If you are currently up in the air about studying abroad, I highly recommend it. It is what you make it!
