STUDY ABROAD!!!!

The key to a successful study abroad experience is being able to use your imagination.
You have to imagine that you aren't here for only six months or five weeks but the new city is your new home.
A good mode to prepare for study abroad is to listen to others who have been abroad before and what they wish they have done. When outland students arrive in Italy, they desire to involve in the Italian community, but becoming involved in the community is complicated because there is a new langauge and a new set of social customs. However, it's possible with a lot of imagination. Foreign students have to meet a group of outside of their campus and devote themself to their preferite activities and hobbies.
The Italians have a bad belief on American students because at first consider them as "loud, lewd, drunk American" so the experience of study abroad is an excellent opportunity to help refute this stereotype.
When you study abroad, everything is new and it is therefore the perfect opportunity to do something you've never done, to try something completely new.
