I think we all have that one friend who studied abroad in BarTHElona (๐Ÿ˜…) for four months and would never stop talking about it. I studied abroad in Europe too for six months and youโ€™d NEVER see me bring it up in public, especially on a page with 246,739 followers ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™‚๏ธ. Which country I went to you ask? I studied abroad in Italy. Yeah, the country with the pastas and Saltbae. Remember the year when COVID started? I kind of flew directly to Europeโ€™s first outbreak in February 2020. Definitely not a vibe ๐Ÿ™…โ€โ™‚๏ธ. I somehow survived Europe without a bank account for 5 months but saw The Louvreโ€™s beauty in its entirety with little to no crowds.

I am graduating this April, and it is always humbling to look back at my journey with RMIT Vietnam, wherever it was. I think I have picked up a lesson or two.

I know this is such a clichรฉ, but it doesnโ€™t disregard the fact that we are bound to learn and grow from the decisions that are out of our comfort zone. If the situation allows us, take that risk. Make careful decisions though, but always with great courage.

This goes to the class of 2022. We have done the things that the past had restricted us to, and have hopefully, experienced our student life here at RMIT to the max. But be certain that this is only the foundation for the new adventures that await us in the future!

Wishing everyone health, peace, and lots of resilience. Whatever youโ€™re going through right now, you can do it! (Iโ€™d know because I studied abroad in Europe ๐Ÿคช)
