Re-entry & Reverse Culture Shock | My CBYX Germany Exchange Year is Over!
After a long year as an American Exchange Student living in Germany with the CBYX Vocational Program, I am back in America. In this video, I discuss my struggles of Re-entry and Reverse culture shock in America after spending a whole year living abroad in Germany.
This video contains footage from the mountainside Sommerrodelbahn (Summer Toboggan track) in the Fränkischen Schweiz (Frankonian Switzerland) of Bavaria, Germany.
I'm currently on foreign exchange in Germany with the CBYX Vocational Scholarship Program.

Taking an Erasmus/Study Abroad Program semester in a foreign country is a great experience, but it's not without its flaws. This video lists 5 of the real problems I've found with study abroad based on my two semester study abroad experience at KEDGE business School in Marseilles, France.
Regardless of what your intentions are going in, international or Erasmus study abroad boils down to about two things, to travel as much as possible and to have as much fun as you can safely manage. During my time at KEDGE business school, this was definitely the case.
My Home University is the University of North Florida (UNF) in Jacksonville Florida, and through my home university I was a international exchange student at KEDGE Business School Marseille Campus for three semesters 2018-2019. desiderius erasmus

Have you ever wanted to travel to Prague? This week as part of my "CBYX Exchange Year in Germany" weekly series I took a trip to the Czech Republic capital city of Prague... or "Praha" as the friendly Czech speaking folks call it. We spent two days in the "City of a hundred spires", staying in a youth hostel, exploring the city, grabbing some inexpensive beers and eating Chimney Studdel trats. In General... just "czech"ing things out (:
Hope you enjoyed the video! If you want to see more of Germany, then simply head over to my channel to see more.
The Exchange Program I am on is a full scholarship called the CBYX Vocational Youth Exchange Vocational.
