My Fulbright Journey in the U.S.

I met with a lot of nice educated people from all over the world; With 31 one people from over 14 different countries (Afghanistan, Brazil, Chile, Cambodia, Dominican Republic, Japan, Kenya, Russia, Thailand among them), to be more precise. We lived, ate, studied, and had fun together. We were a community gathered together in the same place from an entire planet. From time to time I am still contemplating the idea and the opportunity to be a part of such a global assembly where different life experiences, different beliefs and values, different opinions met and intertwined in constructive and valuable discussions. When I left Lincoln for Florida, to continue with my adventure, I felt like I was carrying within me a better understanding of the ways in which we perceive, make sense and cluster the world around us. There is also another thing not to be neglected here: my English skills have considerably improved.
My next and final destination was the city of Gainesville, down in the southern region of the U.S., in Florida – a small city with a big school: University of Florida. The office they provided for me in the historical Keene-Flint Hall (where the Department of History is hosted) virtually became my home for 10 months.
