みなさんこんにちは!ブログスタッフの金です。
今日は、2013年の後期から2014年の前期まで、小樽商科大学で交換留学生として勉強していたイアンさんを取材しました!
1.Why did you choose to study Abroad in Japan?
I chose to study abroad in Japan for three reasons.
First, I could still study economics, which is my major.
Second, the Jasso scholarship allowed me to live comfortably.
Lastly, I wanted to go somewhere that had a completely different culture than my own.
2. How was your short period of study abroad in Japan at Otaru University?
My study abroad in Japan was wonderful.
I got to meet a lot of cool people and make a lot of good friends.
I also got to do a decent amount of travelling and try amazing types of food.
3. How did this study abroad change you?
I have become much more globally aware than I was before my time in Otaru.
I have a greater appreciation for the diversity of the world.
4. How is your life in USA?
Being back in the US was a difficult transition at first.
Everything is just so different, but after about a month I feel like I got fully adjusted.
