Ever since I was little, my parents have traveled almost every week for work. At least one of them was always home with me until I reached the 6th grade. At that age I was deemed "responsible" enough to stay home by myself while their businesses took them elsewhere. Through these experiences, though, I became independent- this sense of self provided me confidence in pursuing things that I would not have done otherwise. For instance, I like to travel and try new things.
While there are downsides to my parent's absences, a perk is their frequent flier miles: they allow us to go far and wide. Having so much experience and confidence in my traveling abilities and my independence as a person, enabled me to travel fly by myself for the first time when I was just 10 years old. Ever since then, I learned that I actually prefer to travel by myself- the experience is far more exciting when you get to navigate the airport's numerous visitors and signs on your own.
But anyways, my point is that with these qualities gained from experiences, your college would be a great fit for me because I would absolutely love to do a study abroad program sophomore year, for at least one semester- either in England to study my major, or a Spanish speaking country to further my language abilities.
