Studying in the US has been a fantastic experience, giving me the chance to connect with people with diverse backgrounds, studying in different disciplines and developing the skills I need to become a better Artist in the rapidly changing arts industry. I got the chance to enhance my perspective of working with new people as well as my understanding of American Culture. My favourite places to visit would have to be New York City and Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire.
