I’ve always dreamed of going abroad and becoming part of a prestigious university in the world, and surprisingly, I got accepted into the GV program at AIESEC SNU! At first, I was also very scared because I am the only Indonesian and I wear a hijab. I was afraid that they would discriminate against me or act in an unwanted way. But both the locals and the AIESECers, they were all kind to me and welcomed me warmly. My heart was very touched at that time. I never expected and thought that such a moment would be present in my sight.

I have a lot of fun during the program. I met many incredible people and I’ve learned many things along the way; from them and from this experience. It may not be perfect nor was it the best, but that’s to be expected right? It’s part of the adventure to require us to overcome unforeseen challenges. For the most part, it was nice while it lasted. It was my first experience going to Europe as a whole, and I’m glad to have GV facilitates this chance for me.

During my Global Volunteer, I gained many skills that I developed and improved on myself, be it in English skills, public speaking or cross cultural understanding. These things made me a person who is more open to seeing the outside world and adapting to the surrounding environment, becoming a more independent and confident person.
