This country has captured my heart, and if you decide to come, I am pretty sure you’ll fall in love with everything this country has to offer.” Eva studies international business at the University of Texas at El Paso, and is currently studying abroad at University of Johannesburg in South Africa.

I am really happy to come to the U.S. as an exchange students through ISEP and I will never forget this memory.” Sunny is currently abroad at East Stroudsberg University in the United States.

I’m just a 21-year-old trying to see and experience the world in every way possible.” Areli is a business marketing major from the University of Texas at El Paso, and is currently studying abroad at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Italy.
