Sagal, congratulations on your graduation! What a huge achievement. I was excited to read about your Michigan experience. I was raised in Michigan and went to university there. I wish you all the best in whatever your next chapter is. I'm sure you will soar, and your skills and spirit will take you in fascinating directions. Good luck! Susan

I went to Michigan as my exchange student this year. My year started pretty Awesome way. I have such an amazing family and siblings who are willing to help me with anything. they're the reason I'm having a good time in Michigan. I also met awesome people who taught me a lot about the culture and what we do differently which I enjoyed the most. I never thought I would enjoy going out of my comfort zone but that's what it turned out.

    Peru

    Nohemi is from the small rural community Socma in the Sacred Valley Region of Peru. Growing up it was difficult for her family to meet their basic needs. This made it challenging for her to prioritize her studies; nevertheless, she was persistent and found the support she needed for secondary education through scholarship programs. "La alegria y las ganas son los que guian nuestro camino para el exito. "Happiness and motivation guide our path to success." In the future, she would like to use her knowledge and experience in order to help develop a sustainable tourism program for Socma. She is very proud of her beautiful community and hopes to share her culture with others in a way that allows for responsible social development.
