Reflections from Jordan

Hello,

My name is Selena Chambers and I studied abroad in Jordan for three months. (Been having some trouble uploading so, my apologies for the delay). But here are some reflections that I have upon returning. I know it’s a bit long but I discuss some lessons learned about global society, myself and some of the experiences I had. All of which I can say with confidence have made me a better person and truly enriched my life. I am exceedingly grateful to the Fund For Education Abroad for assisting me in this journey and investing me having this opportunity. Thank you so much!
