“Being away from the busyness and familiarity of it all truly liberated me to see myself for who I was without the responsibilities and communities I had in Singapore.”

“Cliché as it sounds, spending a semester abroad has made me realised that there is more to life than the paper chase in Singapore.”

Exchange in Paris
“Learning about different cultures is an indelible part of exchange, broadening mental horizons and challenging existing schemas, teaching and moulding me into being a more holistic person.”

“Exchange is not just learning about other countries, but more so about learning to appreciate what we already have.”
