Student Spotlight: Ashley Nelson in Argentina

“During my first month in Buenos Aires I was scared to explore the city on my own and truly immerse myself. I didn’t know the language well, I was completely unfamiliar with the environment, and I didn’t want to stand out more than I already did. I started venturing out around the block of my homestay and slowly traveling further away from home than I did the previous time. I’d celebrate the small victories until they became normal occurrences and then give myself another challenge to conquer.”
