Next, we would visit Prague. Prague is a beautiful city with cobblestone streets. I learned so much about Czech culture and business practices during this visit. We dropped our things off in our rooms and had lunch. Then, we visited our first business, the Czech National Bank. The speaker provided a wealth of knowledge about the financial structure of the Czech Republic.

         Our second visit would be to a newspaper, MF Dnes. Our speaker was very open and

 

informed about the state of the newspaper industry in Prague. He answered questions

 

before giving us a tour of the building. It was good to visit a media business.

Czech culture is rich and full of defining moments; our coordinator was extremely knowledgeable about Czech history. We enjoyed a guided tour of Prague’s old town, and the architecture was beautiful. We saw the astronomical clock in the old town square, which is an event that many people huddle around to see.

 

 

We visited the Terezin concentration camps, which was a life altering experience. It was a glimpse into a tragic part of humanities’ history, but I know that there is value in learning about all aspects of a country’s history in our global economy.

 

We had one last class and a going away dinner; it was an enjoyable night. We were able to relax and reflect on our dynamic educational experience. The next day, we flew back home to our respective cities.

 

My overall impression of the trip was positive. We had two professionally accomplished professors teaching our course. The entire group seemed to benefit greatly from the experience. I am glad to have been a part of the first Keller students to study abroad. I definitely grew professionally and personally.
