Hi, my name is Aryan Janmejay, and I'm a senior majoring in Finance and Entrepreneurship. I had the best summer ever studying abroad in London, United Kingdom over Summer 2018 being apart of the Eller Summer London Internship Program. I spent half of my week interning for an Accounting & Finance firm, and the other half in class and on field trips learning about British literature, writers, and history of the city. Studying abroad has been the highlight of my college career because I got to meet so many people, have amazing food, travel, and make the best memories ever that I will forever cherish.
I love being a peer advisor because it lets me help other students in exploring the idea of studying abroad and having the time of their life!

Hello! My name is Eliana Carrera and I am a senior studying Latin American Studies, Global Studies, and Spanish! I studied abroad with the IDEAS program in Guatemala for two summers and can honestly say that it changed my life. I was able to immerse myself in another culture, live with a loving host family, and develop my Spanish speaking skills. My second summer I had a unique opportunity of studying an indigenous language called Kaqchikel. My time abroad helped me realize my career goals of wanting to work at a grassroots level and with human rights in Latin America. I love working as a Peer Advisor so I can help students see the amazing opportunities that come with studying abroad!

Hi, my name is Samantha M. Grim, and I am a senior majoring in Political Science with an emphasis on American Politics. I studied abroad at The University of Sydney in Fall 2018, and without a doubt, I can say this experience changed my life. From meeting new friends to traveling to places I had only dreamt about, I was always in awe. I created memories that will last a lifetime, and my love for Australia is unexplainable. I have been told that "I'm the Poster Child for Study Abroad" as I continuously talk about my experiences.

My name is Sara and I am majoring in Political Science, Middle Eastern Studies, and Arabic. I spent Spring 2019 at the American University in Cairo, Egypt. Traveling and studying in Egypt has always been a dream of mine, but it was better than I ever imagined! I drastically improved my Arabic speaking skills, immersed myself in a new and beautiful culture, and I got to see some of the ancient world's most precious treasures and landmarks. Studying in Egypt truly was a life-changing experience because I got a job teaching English to primary school children, so I am moving there post-graduation!
I'm grateful to the UofA and Study Abroad for the opportunity of a lifetime, and I love being a peer advisor so I can help others to have this same experience!

Hello! My name is Taylor and I am a senior studying Communication with a minor in Spanish. I studied abroad in Spring 2019 in Orvieto, Italy. I was able to take two classes that were direct credit for my major as well as some Italian upper division classes. Orvieto is one of my favorite cities. It gave me an authentic experience where I was able to completely submerge myself in Italian culture. I was having apperitivo everyday, eating as much pizza and pasta as I could, and in general, I was learning what it was like to live like a true Italian. I am looking forward to going back there as it was a life changing experience!

My name is Topacio Salazar, I am a junior studying animal science, and I studied abroad in Orvieto, Italy during the Fall 2018 semester. Studying abroad challenged me to face my biggest fears, get out of my comfort zone, and it gave me a new perspective on the opportunity to learn more about the world in an entirely different culture. It opened my eyes to new ways of seeing growth in myself and the people around me. Studying abroad also allowed me to stand out as a student and it is something that I can highlight on my resume! Now, I enjoy helping other students find their chance to study abroad. My piece of advice: do not miss out on the opportunity to change your life for the better!
