I had an opportunity to attend an university abroad. I went to Moscow (Russia). It was a challenge for me. I would recommend this kind of experience to everybody. Even though I think Russia is not so open to foreigners...
But, how about you? Where would you like to study if you had an opportunity? Share your opinion...!!

I would study either in Australia or South Africa because they have the most advanced programs for my field.

I would probably want to go to Austrailia. It's just always someplace I've wanted to go. I've actually looked into going there to study abroad and my major is accepted in the program in Austrailia. If I have the option of going, I would probably go.

I just want to study abroad and receive different kinds of culture, getting global experience from that.

I think I would go to Spain if I could study abroad. I could've had the chance in college, but either it wasn't enough space and my grades weren't high enough or i couldn't finance it at the time i don't remember, but Spanish was my minor in college and I learned a lot about the history, culture, traditions, and things like that. Watching movies and seeing pictures of Spain, i think it is a very natural, beautiful, and historic place with very old architecture and styles in some places. another place i would like to go would be italy, australia, or africa

If I studied abroad, I would choose Canada. My mother studied in Canada. There is a large English speaking population in Canada and the United States is right close by should something go wrong. The world climate at this time makes me nervous. Canada is a friendly neighbor.

it's very fortunate that you got a chance to study in russia! do you speak russian? or did you already speak russian?
I've heard that russia is quite a complex place and settling in can be very difficult.
I think I would like to go to a country where i can learn a different language. of course that would mean more difficulties and more adjustments in addition to living away from home. right now I'm thinking japan. :)

If I could study in another country, I would definitely choose my favorite country of Japan! I love Japanese food, and the language, music, clothes, television and people. Plus there are so many cute things to buy and see there, it's the perfect place for me. I would finally be able to learn to speak the language well and see a lot of the places I have heard about, plus I could learn about their culture and what kinds of things they do that are different from the US.

I'd love to study abroad, and I'd definitely try to make the most of the experience by choosing a country with a different culture and background than my own, here in Australia.
I'd definitely rather go to a non-English speaking country and have the opportunity to communicate in another language first hand.
Somewhere, anywhere, in Europe would be great.
I've always wanted to go to Sweden, Greece, Italy & Spain though, so any of them would be amazing =D

If I could study abroad, I think I would choose Italy. They have such detailed art and also historians that made quite a difference in thought and societal development. I also envy the slower pace of life they lead, and perhaps that is the biggest benefit I could take from Italy.
