2-weeks-exchange-program in San Francisco
Last July, I was selected to go to San Francisco with a group of students who came from different universities background. We went to various fantastic places such as Golden Gate Bridge, Mission Delors, Vista point, Bay Bridge, and Union Square. Amazingly, we had remarkable opportunities to go to giant companies in Silicon Valley and financial district, those of which include Google, Mozilla Firefox, Cisco, HIP (Human Impact & Profit), HUB and Food Revolution. Those companies I have mentioned are all everyone dreams that she/he wishes to step in, and particularly Google, I am grateful to have this golden opportunity to explore about the world that used to appear beyond my imagination. Furthermore, we also went to Stanford University and Berkeley College for our study tour.
2 weeks trip to San Francisco means a lot to me, it is not about all the memories that I have spent with my group, but a life-changing experience that helps to widen my knowledge and a key-opening for my future career. Undoubtedly, I have learned so many things about that amazing place. However, one important factor is that every company in United States always does something that is good for their society which also known as social responsibilities. For instances, HUB, a place for the business interaction, most of their facilities are created from all the wastes. Recycling and renovation is what they do for their working environment; they renovate the entire old chair, table, and other office equipment. Another obvious example is Food Revolution Company; they provide a nutritious food for all the high school students. They are not only making profit, but also benefit the younger generation's health at the same time. Admittedly, it is hardly to find such of those companies in my country because we are in developing country, I do hope I will have a chance to put all those things into practice and be a change maker for my own nation.
To conclude, United States is not only a great place to visit; however also a great place for students to discover the new things and technologies that have been implemented. Americans not only work, but they do pay attention to their country and people around.
