Meet Cassidy Y.

"My favorite part about my study abroad experience was the university clubs and student organizations that I joined. The Newcastle University Mountaineering Club offered great, cheap, beginner trips that were easy to sign up for. I also joined the University of Newcastle Exchange Student Network, where I met students from around the world and attended local events like a boat tour, beach days, winery tour, and hiking trips!"
