The beauty of Mali
The first things that come on my mind when I think about Mali's beauty are the mountains and river of Bandiagara. I've never been there but I saw some pictures and members of my family who went there talked to me about it. They told me how beautiful the place is and what makes it so beautiful. Before the problems of insecurity related to terrorism, Bandiagara was the most visited place in Mali and one of the most visited place in West Africa. Bandiagara is a place with very impressive mountains and beautiful rivers. Bandiagara is also called "Pays Dogon" which literately means "Country of Dogon" because it is a place lived by Dogons (which is one of the thirteen ethnic group of Mali). The place doesn't attract people only because of the awesome landscape but also because of the history related to the Dogon's culture and Islam. A great and important person lived there many years ago and every year people go to Bandiagara to make sacrifices in hi memory.

My Personal Outlook on the US
I can't really say that my perspective and outlook have changed since I'm in the US. I used to come here, so I already had a perspective before coming here. Having been here for holidays living here are really different, that's the first thing that I noticed and that affected me. In my hometown, you have someone who do everything for you like washing the dishes, the clothes, clean the house, etc. I had a driver who brought me everywhere I want until I took my driver's license. Now I'm in the US, I don't have my license yet, so I have to get up early, take the bus to get on time at school. I have to cook for myself, was my dishes, clean my bedroom, I have to do everything that I didn't do when I was in my hometown. These differences make me understand that I have to depend on myself, do everything for myself because no one will do it for me. I can only trust myself. I think that this experience will make me more responsible, i'll discover things, lot of culture and be more open-minded.

Interacting with students and becoming a part of University campus
Interacting with people when you are a foreigner could be difficult especially when you are reserved person and a bit shy like me. I'm not really open to people even though I know since a long time so imagine me opening myself to someone I don't know. There is a way for me to be close to people and feel myself as a part of them. This way is practicing sports, that's why I decide to join the soccer club and the football club ( by the way, I never played football and I don't even know the rules ). Sports are the best ways to interact with people and be a part of them, it is not only my case, but the case of everybody I guess. After I joined the clubs, I had mo more worries about my integration.
