Study Abroad

I have considered studying abroad because if I get to go on the trip that I plan on going on over this coming summer to Australia, I may love it and decide to study there for an entire semester. The plan for that trip is to spend 2 weeks doing volunteer preservation work for the environment and endangered species there. Then, we spend 2 weeks doing adventure travel like white water rafting, rock climbing, snorkeling, scuba diving, and other amazing things that I have never done or had the opportunity to do in America, much less Australia! I think it's going to be ridiculously amazing and I am in the process of applying for a passport travel grant. I hope it's not too late for them to award them all... I forsee few to no barriers in this experience because I am open to the opportunity and very VERY excited about it!!!
