In order to make friends with the local students, I joined a variety of clubs and got involved in the community by attending a local church. Living in a dorm on campus would have also helped to make friends with the local students. It is easy to make friends with students abroad as well, as the majority of them lived in my dorm-style building for international students. There are two clubs on campus that bring together local and international students to take trips or do fun activities. These trips, as well as other independent travels, allowed me to explore the country. In my free time, I went out to eat with friends, site-seeing, enjoying the night life, and attending night markets or shopping districts.

Advice for Future Students

I recommend getting involved with the community or campus, especially in settings that require the use of the local language. Go explore on your own; the country is super safe and the more you get lost in the country, the better.
