AIFS Program: Budapest, Hungary | School: California State University, Chico | Bio: Szia! I’m Kelsey and I’m currently a senior at the California State University of Chico. I plan on graduating this next Spring of 2019, with a Bachelors of Arts in Communication Studies of Public Affairs and a Minor in Marketing. At Chico State, I am a member of the sorority Alpha Phi and an active volunteer in the Chico community. In the spring semester of my junior year I made a last minute decision to take off and study abroad for four months! It turned out to be the best decision of my life. I studied abroad in the incredible city of Budapest! Not only did I have the opportunity to experience a different culture and university life, I made some true friendships that will last a lifetime. This experience recharged my love to learn and my passion to travel. While abroad I visited 9 countries and spent a good majority of my time immersing myself in the Hungarian culture. I encourage everyone to study abroad during their college career and embrace your curiosities while you are there. This unique experience will stay with you wherever life takes you next. “Nothing is impossible. The word itself says ‘I’m possible’!” - Audrey Hepburn
