"For my year abroad I went to the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. I was the only person in my year to go there and I was studying History while I was out there. The reason I chose Tennessee and Southern America was because I wanted to experience a culture completely unknown to me"

Reflection
"Overall, I never thought twice about whether I should be on the year abroad, it was such an enjoyable year but also helped me grow as a person. I would 100% recommend a year abroad to anyone thinking about doing it."
