Gina Bobadilla Torres – 2019-2020, Study, U.S.A (Foreign Fulbright)

Hi! I'm Gina Bobadilla and I'm from Bogota, Colombia, now I'm in Philadelphia doing a master's program in Innovation Management and Entrepreneurship at Temple University.⁠ ⁠ What I've learned being in Philly is the strong sense of community here, a lot of love from the locals to their city, but also, a welcoming environment to anyone new in town. Everyone makes you feel part of the community.

My Fulbright experience so far has been amazing. I feel that every time you meet another Fulbrighter is like an instant friendship. You both know that you have something in common.⁠ ⁠ The cultural exchange between the Fulbright people is exciting: Knowing about other countries, other ways to do things, main problems and solutions in other contexts... That just opens your eyes. ⁠ ⁠

I've had the opportunity to share perspectives about Colombia, trying to be an ambassador of the good things that my country has to offer.⁠ ⁠
