The most unforgettable time of my term abroad was with forty-one other international exchange students traveling around Australia during our term break.

At the end of our 11 in Australia, we had three weeks of traveling time to share our stories and help each other deal with leaving. It was 12 that our last day together was filled with tears. We packed our camp, exchanged e-mail addresses, and gathered together for a final good-bye.
