What is your city/town known for? Is it different from Sterling?

Did you always know you wanted to study in the U.S.?
No, I had this idea since July 2018 thanks to my best friend's big brother who went to the U.S. for soccer.
What were you excited or nervous about before you left?
The months preceding my departure I was extremely excited but more my departure approached I was stressed and sad to leave my close relations.
What advice would you give another student thinking of studying in the U.S.?
I will tell them that it is a great experience and that in few countries you can practice your passion every day while doing good studies. Also discovering a new culture and a new language are advantages for the future.
