Five years ago, I decided to go for a one-semester high school exchange in Trento, Italy. This was a big decision for me, considering I usually felt homesick after only a few days away from home. A whole semester felt like forever.<\/p>\n

But: It was absolutely the best decision I could have made! I had the time of my life, in a country that I already loved so much. Studying the most beautiful language in the world and meeting so many amazing people, while experiencing the essence of Italian life, was truly amazing. Trento will forever have a special place in my heart as my home away from home.<\/p>\n

Learning a new language is one of the most enriching things you can do. Certainly, it can be very tough at the beginning. However, you will soon realize how much you have improved since your arrival.<\/p>\n

Apart from improving my Italian, thanks to my experience abroad, I also became more confident and independent.<\/p>\n

Choosing STS was the best decision. Thank you, STS!<\/p>\n
