I really enjoyed how upfront this essay was. I found it very entertaining and enjoyable to read. It almost reminded me of senior year spring break trips taken to a new level. I liked the style of narration in which it was written. I liked how he made it seem as if it were happening to you by saying things like, "This is it, you will be told" and "At this point your guide will leave you to settle in". This style of narration made it interesting to read and gave it even more of a comedic tone. I was wondering how old he was when he had this experience and if it was during his study abroad trip or if he went abroad again after studying abroad?
