studying abroad in greece left me with nothing but a new infatuation of greek culture, travelling, and a lifetime of friendships. after landing in thessaloniki, i was greeted by act staff who helped me get to the school to pick up my keys. throughout my time in greece, there were excursions planned on the weekends (for a small fee) which included accommodations, transportation and guides. this was an amazing way to meet friends and travel around to beautiful sites. you don’t have to worry about residence when going to act as it is included with your tuition. greece is a very different and interesting place compared to canada. i was always shown the utmost hospitality and always felt safe. i would recommend act in thessaloniki, greece to anyone as it was a truly unforgettable experience.
