Learning from Unexpected
This presentation describes how common unexpected situations can occur while traveling in another country. Although it is difficult to fully prepare for the unexpected, this presentation will share a series of steps to take while preparing for travel in order to reduce unplanned obstacles, as well as helpful key strategies to have when placed in an unexpected event. Alongside the preparation steps and useful strategies, this presentation will highlight two to three unexpected events within the presenters study abroad trip, that support the necessity for preparation and strategies. The events and key points made within the presentation will reveal how the unexpected can expectedly shape an individual’s trip, their problem solving skills, and their ability to use such skills in future career and/or life pathways.
