Korey's experience with Mente Argentina

Korey, from North Carolina Central University, describes a month on the summer program as hard work that paid off, a phenomenal experience with a great deal learned. Korey praises the professors, the RAs and staff, and fellow residents, and made many new friends. Korey went to nearly every community activity, and the favorite by far was the zoo, where petting a lion became an all-time highlight. The city reminded Korey of New York, big, busy and loud, yet with very nice people and no trouble getting around, and a life quite different from home. The advice for future participants: come with an open mind about new experiences and cultures, take advantage of once-in-a-lifetime opportunities and have fun. Korey also thanks the team for a fantastic job with the living arrangements.

In Korey's own words

The program was wonderful. It was a month of hard work, but it all paid off. I have learned so much, and it was phenomenal. My professors were great, and the RAs and staff have been wonderful as well. The residents here have been wonderful. I love the people here. I have met so many people and made some new friends. I pretty much went to every community activity that was planned for us, and I can say all of them were great. My favorite has to be the zoo. I would never have imagined we would go in and touch and pet a lion. It has to be one of my all-time favorites. The city was wonderful. It is kind of like New York, a big city, with a lot of people and loud, but the people here are very nice. I have never had a problem getting around. It is a lot different from back home, but I love it. It can be better. For future participants, come with an open mind about the experiences and the cultures you are going to encounter, and just have fun. A lot of these opportunities do not come more than once in a lifetime, so take advantage of it. Make sure you have fun with everything, because you are going to learn a lot. That is what I did. I think you all have done a wonderful job with the living arrangements, being accommodated as students whose moms are not around. I think you all have done a fantastic job with the living arrangements.
