What do you want to take to and bring back from Prague and the Czech Republic?

What I hope to take and keep with me throughout the program is a simple willingness to learn—from every experience, moment, place, person, assignment, novel, meal, walk, conversation, etc. I hope to leave Prague with a better understanding of how I can embrace and celebrate interdependence.

If you were Gregor Samsa in Franz Kafka’s story “The Metamorphosis,” what insect would you turn into? If I had to choose the life of an insect it would be that of the bee: I admire their selfless work for this world and their ability to fly.
