An American Abroad

Being an American abroad has so many different meanings. For me, being an American abroad refers to going outside of your norm and doing things that are unexpected and going to places that you have never have gone before.. As a Maryville College student studying abroad in an Asian country I expect to see many things pop up that are new to me. Different culture, language, setting etc. Overall I think as I await my final preparations to study abroad being an American is something to be proud of. Even as a foreigner, I can still appreciate what other people think in terms as being an outsider. However, in the end as I await my final steps into the Land of the Rising Sun, it'll surely be a moment I'll never forget.
