Student Exchange Experience - Gabrielle Shoebridge
Submitted by mericiadmin on March 29, 2023 - 10:33amWhat made you apply for an exchange program?
Way back in 2014, when I was in Year 2, my family went on a ‘big trip’ around Europe – we spent a week in Berlin, and I was hooked (looking back, it was probably the colourful, life-size bear statues we ran into wherever we went). I’ve been taking German lessons ever since. The more I learned about the language and culture, the more I craved to be there, in Germany, surrounded by it all – an exchange seemed like the perfect opportunity for me.
