Bangkok, Thailand

Abstract

Most Memorable Moment: One of my favorite moments is when I went to an elephant sanctuary for a day with some friends I met in my program. While at the sanctuary, we fed the elephants, learned about the elephant population in Thailand and the challenges they face, prepared food buckets for the next feeding, and even rode the elephants in the river next to the sanctuary. “Studying abroad sets you apart from other students... this has left me to be more flexible and approach new things with an open mind.” Nuy Beach is about 10 minutes by boat from Koh Phi Phi (which is an hour flight from Bangkok). Nichole practically had this beach to herself while relaxing before finals began.
