Phillip Syrros Exchange Returnee from the University of British Columbia, Canada “My exchange took me from the snowy peaks of the Canadian snowfields to the fascinating culture in Cuba and the breathtaking landscapes of South America. I was fortunate to live with three Canadian guys who gave me the opportunity to experience what it is like to be a Canadian; endless watching of ice hockey and many poutines consumed. I was able to learn new activities in some of the most amazing places on earth with friends from a diverse range of countries (for example, my first ski experience was at Whistler-Blackcomb!). My return to Canada will surely not be long away!”
