Long and winding roads have taken us to weird and wonderful places over the years, places that have given us invaluable insights into other cultures and fascinating stories to share with others.
Some of us learned this during our time at Carleton, thanks to off-campus studies programs that took us around the country and around the world. The six classmates featured here have had significant experiences traveling, working, and living outside the United States. Two of them now live abroad. Their stories provide an important reminder of how experiencing difference can broaden our understanding of the world — and of ourselves.
