What was your first overseas experience？

The first long-term overseas stint I embarked on was in June of 2017 when I decided I would pursue an MBA in Hong Kong. Apart from that, I don't really remember well this but when I was 2 my father was posted to the US and I stayed there for 8 months. I used to be told that my English pronunciation is good and so from a young age I thought that I would like to do something that involves interaction with people overseas. When I was in high school I spent 1 month on a homestay program in Canada and participated in a month-long volunteer program in France during my university days.
