Danielle Youngblut

Danielle Youngblut, a Junior from Jesup, Iowa, studying Agricultural Business and Advertising at Iowa State University recently returned from a 2-week travel course to the United Kingdom. Danielle studied in Europe right after high school and was looking for an opportunity to return while she was still in college. During her participation in the Brexit program, Danielle was able to connect with peers and created personal bonds and memories that will last a lifetime. Danielle said, “The most rewarding part of my study abroad experience was traveling to the United Kingdom during a time I believe will go down in history.  Brexit has created a complicated situation for the UK and it was very eye opening to hear and observe the opinions and uncertainty of locals.  Overall, it was a once in a lifetime experience.” Danielle’s advice to students interested in studying abroad would be, “Just do it! There are so many things you get out of studying abroad such as, personal connections, memories and a new outlook on the world.”
