Anna Nguyen – The University of Texas at Austin, USA

‘My exchange semester at UT Austin was such a memorable and eye-opening experience. 

I met amazing people from around the world, experienced a new learning environment, and got a real taste of American and Texan culture.
Outside of school, I explored Austin’s live music, food trucks, and football games—and I even got the chance to travel to New York!
This journey really pushed me out of my comfort zone and gave me unforgettable memories.’

‘GLEF puts much premium on students’ global exposure and I am fortunate to go on two exchanges in the United States and Europe, respectively.

My first exchange to the University of Michigan has not only fulfilled my academic goals but also broadened my horizons, both intellectually and culturally.
In the year of the Paris Olympics, I went on my second exchange to Université Catholique de Lille.
For sure, travel is the highlight of exchange.
These exchange experiences have created a transformative impact for me, both personally and professionally.

Yannes Yau – Queen’s University, Canada

“This school was not my first choice to be honest but now looking back at the photos, I am beyond grateful for doing exchange at Queen’s University.

The life there also brought me so many new opportunities that I believe can never or hardly happen in Hong Kong.
Staying in Hong Kong is great for sure but you will eventually find something even better when you look at the other side of the Earth.

‘I am absolutely grateful to be able to spend a fruitful semester at Korea University, South Korea in the midst of the pandemic. 

The university is located in Seoul, which is also the capital and largest metropolis of the country with 25 million people in the area.
As an exchange student in South Korea, I got to interact with students from all over the world, such as United States, Australia, Mexico, Italy and more.
During the past four months, there were lots of challenges and adversities.
Lastly, I would like to strongly recommend everyone who is reading this to grasp the given opportunity to make the most of the whole experience and not to be afraid to constantly challenge yourself.’
