Hey everyone! My name is Caroline Wildstein and I’m a
junior marketing major in the School of Business. I’ve been dreaming about
getting the chance to go to Cape Town since I found out about the program at
the study abroad fair my freshman year. The program is such a great opportunity
for me; not only do I get to spend four months of my life in one of the most
beautiful places on earth, but I will get to experience a unique and diverse
culture completely different than my own.
I am especially looking forward to the internship
component of the trip - that aspect is initially what attracted me to the Cape
Town program. During my internship, I hope to gain a better understanding
of the lasting political, economic, and social effects of South Africa’s
history from an economic perspective. I look forward to experiencing firsthand
the relationship between global economics and social change.
I have no idea what exactly to expect once we step off
the flight, but I cannot wait to find out. I know this program will
change and mature me as a person and I think that is one of the most important
things that travel can teach you.
I am beyond excited to get to know all of you and
spend the next semester exploring South Africa together– especially the
Kruger!
