I also learned to push myself beyond my normal social limits and ultimately became more confident and self-reliant. I was even able to learn more about my new friend’s cultures and how they differed from my own. When I emerged from the Atlanta airport a few days later, I felt like an entirely different person.…

Making friends and communicating becomes almost impossible until the child learns the language that they have been submerged into.…
