Moreover, bathed in a different culture of a foreign country, we can gain great insights into the world because cross⁃cultural experiences can give us a global perspective.Studying abroad takes us out of our comfort zone and changes us for the better, which is the most important from my perspective.
All things considered, I hope you can choose to study abroad and start a new life.
Yours,
Li Hua
