My name is Nia Reaves, and I am a student at LeMoyne-Owen College. My goal is to make the most out of this once-in-a- lifetime opportunity to study abroad in Egypt. I am eager to explore Egypt's rich culture and history while expanding my education beyond the classroom. This experience is important to me because it will not only broaden my understanding of African history but also help me grow academically and personally. I hope to use what I learn to inspire others and contribute to my friends and family in meaningful ways.
