Students from many different cultures from all over the world participate in the Work and Travel program. Its main purpose is cultural change. Spending time with people from different cultures, socializing and learning new things. For this reason, it is useful to remember that you represent your country while talking to people in the places you go or in the friendships you make. In the same way, you get impressions about other people during your time in the program. When you return to your country, you inevitably code in your mind like Spanish and Filipino 😊
Of course, in this process, you will establish many sincere friendships, whether Turkish or foreign. Established in a country where you are completely new and never known, these friendships, even if they are short, are much more meaningful and based on much more solid foundations and can easily be carried after the program because you share many things and make each other feel safe. When you return to Turkey, you will have two types of friends. Before Work and Travel and after Work and Travel. In fact, sometimes you are constantly meeting with your Work and Travel friends more than your old friends. It is very possible to hear the reproaches 😊
