Meet Kaya D.

"Before studying abroad in Tokyo, I had never left the U.S., so to travel 7,000 miles from home was a huge leap of faith. However, I built a second home in Japan. Studying abroad takes you out of your comfort zone and pushes you to take chances you never would have at home. Japan is so safe, forgiving, and welcoming, I'm so glad I chose to study there!"
