20 Christie s Review It has been a great 12 days spending in UCLA. Meeting people across the globe and spending a quality time with colleagues and students in LA are undoubtedly the most valuable things I have done in this year. This has totally broaden my horizons. The nationality mix in UCLA is more diverse than CityU, and I believe this is the main reason that people who come from different places can get and play along with each other very well. In the coming future, I believe we can learn more from them about the international culture. Thank you for the opportunity to visit one of the top university which is across the Pacific Ocean to us!

21 Sara s Review This is such a valuable experience to pay a visit to UCLA, one of the best universities in the world. In two weeks time, I got the chance to live in the residential area with Christie. It lets us communicate with student leaders and staffs working in Student Residence Office. I have learnt a lot from their work and everyday life, such as the way they cooperate with hall tutors and their passion in creating a better residential area in school. Apart from residential life, I had great fun when the staffs took us to travel around Los Angeles. The weather was nice, places are gorgeous and people are so friendly. This visit is a memorable experience which I am so glad that I did not miss this opportunity. I also got a good new friend after that --- it s Christie!
