“I chose API for a chance to gain career experience in an unfamiliar place. I dreamed of the chance to go abroad and when I finally did, it surpassed my expectations tenfold. I learned so much both in my field and of the world around me – I left with incredible memories, friendships, and meaningful connections that will follow me the rest of my life. Do not hesitate, I promise it will be the best time of your life.”
