Thanks to the program I gained a lot of experiences and memories which substantially formed my personality. I became more confident, met many amazing people who I will never forget. My host family in particular is dear to my heart – I’ve always felt like their own daughter. My year at a high school in the US was one of the most beautiful years of my life. I improved my English, became a better athlete and a better person. Just applying for the GBE Foundation scholarship competition was a great challenge for me. I proved in the US to myself and to others that I can achieve more than I have ever dreamed of. The beginning was of course really hard but saying goodbye was even harder. If I could, I would enter the program again and again… :-)
