“My most memorable moment was talking to local tomato farmers. We visited a farmer’s home where we were able to interview many senior farmers and ask them questions about their crop production. My main takeaway from the interview is how, after years and years of farming, they still wake up every day ready to take care of their crops because they take great pride in what they do. I also noticed how all the farmers talked to each other like they were a family, creating a space of community and joy surrounding the field. One of the farmers was 70 years old and still had a huge smile, at that moment I realized I too couldn’t wait to cultivate my own land and start growing my own farm. This trip has truly made me feel like I chose the right path in agriculture, which helped me spiritually open up to my journey in health and wellness.” (2/2)

Amanda Sullivan shares with us her study abroad experience through the “Winter: Rutgers-Rooted in Change: Immersive learning for Rural Agro-Food Development in Southern India” program in India:
---------
“When arriving in India, I promised myself I would keep an open mind, wanting to fully immerse myself in every opportunity and understand the cultural practices. I have traveled within the United States before, but never abroad, and I did find traveling to be the most challenging part of the journey. The 16-hour flight and canceled trips created stress upon arrival and departure. That being said, I found the stay itself at Amrita College absolutely wonderful, and the hospitality amazing. I wanted to study abroad to expand my knowledge and take a week to explore my love for agriculture and begin a spiritual journey. I wanted to take that time to dive deep into why I am pursuing a path in farming, and explore how farming is defined in other cultures. One such factor was the market culture that shocked me. In the U.S., farmers’ markets have become associated with status, now having a connotation of expensive produce and fancy products. In India, markets are a livelihood where the majority of families have farms that are passed down. What I found most impressive was that Amrita University prepares students to take over their family farms and establish their own businesses through more workshops and hands-on experience. At Rutgers, most of the coursework consists of slide shows and research, whereas in Southern India, their schooling focuses on growing food and creating products with grades based on how well they sell at markets.” (1/2)

----------
“While studying abroad this summer in England, one of my most memorable program experiences was being able to interact with my peers and my professor face-to-face. Being in the Masters of Information program, I am fully online/remotely learning. It can be tough trying to forge those connections with my peers while communicating through a screen. It is a challenge I hadn't previously considered before entering the program. Being on site with a group of my peers who were taking some of the same classes as me created connections that hadn't been there before. We were only on site for 10 days together, but I am so grateful for the experience, not only for all the amazing things I learned, but for the connections I made!”

“Overall, my study abroad experience in Greece allowed me to learn in a way that could never be replicated in a classroom. The Lifestyles of the Mediterranean course brought history, culture, and lifestyle to life through direct experience, especially during our visit to the Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus. Performing in such a historic space not only deepened my appreciation for Greek theatre but also reinforced my passion for the art as a theatre minor. This experience challenged me, inspired me, and left a lasting impact on both my academic journey and personal growth, making my time in Greece an unforgettable chapter of my college career.” (3/3)

“As a theatre minor, visiting Epidaurus was a dream come true. I had the opportunity to stand in the same theatre where millions of performers have taken the stage and where even more people from around the world have gathered to watch performances over the centuries. One of our assignments for this class was to perform a Greek tragedy, and I was incredibly fortunate to be part of the group that performed in the actual theatre. Performing in such a historic space is considered one of the greatest honors for many actors, and even though our performance was a simple retelling of the myth of Demeter and Persephone, the experience was unforgettable.” (2/3)

Mahek reflects on the moments that made her study abroad in Greece unforgettable through the “Winter: Lifestyles of the Mediterranean" study abroad program:
---------------

“In January 2026, I studied abroad in Athens and Nafplio, Greece. The course I took, titled Lifestyles of the Mediterranean, was primarily taught by Dr. Labros Sidossis. Throughout this course, I gained countless experiences and learned many meaningful lessons. People often say that you learn best through experience, and my time in Greece proved that to be completely true. Every moment of the trip brought new memories, new experiences, and new friendships that I will never forget. During this trip, I experienced many incredible moments, but one stood out more than the rest: our visit to the Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus.

The Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus is one of the best-preserved ancient Greek theaters, dating back to the 4th century BCE. It was originally built as part of a sanctuary dedicated to Asclepius, the Greek god of healing, and used for theatrical performances believed to promote physical and mental well-being. The theater is especially famous for its remarkable acoustics, which allow even the smallest sounds from the stage to be heard clearly throughout the seating area. Today, Epidaurus remains an important historical site and a powerful example of ancient Greece's advanced architectural and cultural achievements.” (1/3)

“One thing that caught me by surprise was the amount of history in Europe. When we went to cathedrals or museums, we would see works of art that dated back to the 1500s. Even just from seeing the architecture in Spain, we can see the amount of history there is. Being in Spain made me want to learn more about its culture and ultimately decide to live there. More specifically, Madrid. Madrid is very similar to New York, and from there you can travel from country to country very easily and for very cheap.” (2/2)

-------------

“Studying in Spain has been one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had. I was able to explore a new country with entirely new people. The day felt like it was split up into two parts because of how Spaniards live their life. A typical day consisted of waking up around 6, eating breakfast, going to class until 12, eating lunch at 1, then taking a siesta from 2 to 3. 3 is when our "second day" would begin. We learn about how people in Spain like to separate work and personal life to reduce stress, and this is one of the ways they do this. Another very rewarding feeling I got from this program was being able to use my Spanish in day-to-day life. This is something I had always wanted to do after taking many Spanish classes throughout my college career.” (1/2)
