What Studying Abroad Really Teaches You…

What happens when you step outside your comfort zone? In this episode, Tanner sits down with his friend Andre, a shy and isolated Lebanese American student. Andre shares his story of struggling to adapt, pushing himself to meet new people, and eventually experiencing growth, friendships, and unforgettable memories through travel. From cultural differences to lessons about food, health, and happiness, the conversation explores why travel shapes us, why money doesn’t equal happiness, and why now is the time to see the world. Sometimes the best education doesn’t happen in a classroom, it happens when you leave your comfort zone.
