Katherine Hendrickx

Katherine Hendrickx is an Ambassador who studied abroad in Greece and Italy.

Briefly describe a specific cultural experience you had on your trip that made a lasting impression.

Riding a donkey up to Fira in Santorini--a scary, funny experience!

Why did you choose the program in which you participated? 

I've always been fascinated by the classical cultures.

Describe your overall study abroad experience.

The whole reason I picked CSB was for their study abroad program, and this college did not let me down. If I could choose again, I would make the same choice. My directors were amazing, my professors knowledgeable and humorous, and my classmates got along fabulously together.

How has the trip affected you? How are you different for having completed the experience?

I want to learn more about global issues and the global economy and politics. I'm myself, just a little more aware of different cultures.

What advice do you have for future Study Abroad Students?

Don't be afraid to travel with just a couple people over the weekends, for packing remember: less is more.
