Travel: I traveled to Spain during spring break for a class. After that trip, I really wanted to travel the world or at least all the states in the US.

One story from SNHU: The most memorable story about SNHU is that I got to know about and joined the Peer Advising Leader (PAL) team to meet and help new students from orientation, move in, making schedules, etc. It felt so good to help others and get to know what it’s like in orientation as I missed that. It’s, of course, really fun, and I’m sure I still have some those cool items and pictures from orientation. While volunteering as a PAL, I was introduced and became an International Student Ambassador. I’m really happy being able to help others.

We hiked for many hours with great conversations on the way up and down. When we finished I knew we were friends for life.
