The United States hosts the largest number of exchange programs in the world. After being selected for the SUSI exchange program, these past six weeks in the US have been the happiest of my life.

We spent four weeks at Amherst University in Massachusetts. The study tour lasted two weeks and visited Washington, DC, Virginia and New York. Here are a few photos from my 2017 trip to Washington DC.
