a better job if we study abroad right now So

we're gonna tell our parents that semester of eating quest

01:05

song by the seine is actually going to give us

01:08

something we can hold onto Besides the massive love handles

01:12

we got from eating butter drench us on every day

01:15

01:18

job thing All right well option b definitely doesn't convince

01:21

us The number of american students who study abroad every

George is the best answer According to the author students

02:14

who travel are more likely to get a college degree

and people with degrees generally land better jobs than people

02:20

without degrees They also land in a pile of student

02:23

loans But we don't like to think about that Hello
