So you’re thinking of studying, working or volunteering abroad? Congratulations.
Not only will it look impressive to employers on your CV but it will also enable
you to develop into a more well-rounded person with a greater understanding
and appreciation of other cultures and a proven ability to overcome the
challenges of living in another country.
We appreciate that taking the first step can be quite a daunting prospect which
is why the iStudy team has shared some of their own personal experiences
along with providing helpful tips to ensure you are well prepared and ready to
conquer any and all obstacles you may face along the way.
In this edition we have featured personal experiences of working and studying
in seven different countries as well as showcasing the best education providers
and language schools to conquer six global languages. From a career
development perspective we have also included an interview with Powerful
Youth co-founder David Charron on how to build a better young leader, as
well as featuring volunteering opportunities in marine conservation, wildlife
protection, and healthcare & medicine.
