What are some things you like and dislike about America?
“I like that people are very ambitious and, for the most part, know what they want to do in the future. There is always something going on in the daily lives of people, whether it’s on social media or campus, and it amuses me. I don’t like that some things are taken too seriously, some people are always so negative about anything and forget how fortunate they are”
How was it adjusting to America?
“It was pretty easy, I adjusted pretty fast to the different aspects of America. Something that took some time was the teaching style of professors and the different accents that Americans have”
What were your expectations coming to Georgia Southern?
“It exceeded my expectations. I didn’t think there would be as many people and as much to participate in. I also didn’t think I was going to enjoy campus life as much as I do.”
What do you like to do in your leisure time?
“I play soccer, I listen to music, I read and I like to write”
What are you involved in on campus?
“ASA- African student association, I work at the RAC and I referee for the intramural soccer league”
