Testimonies
“Magis has taught me to enjoy every moment; it has shown me how beautiful and fundamental it is to be deeply connected with nature; to value more the people who love me; to love myself for who I am; to erase my prejudices and look at people with the eyes of the heart; to trust that there is always a light that will guide us to the happiness.”
“There are no words to describe how impactful Magis has been for me. The experiences I have lived through, with a deep connection to Jesuit values, have changed my life, and I so incredibly grateful to have been able to participate in Magis Exchange.”
“After my exchange experience, I started seeing the world in a new perspective. I feel very confident in my abilities as a student, and I believe that I can make a change in this world.”
“I enjoyed Magis because it not only gave me the opportunity to travel the world and discover magical places and friends; but because it also allowed me to know myself, my virtues, my defects and the way in which I face and seek solutions to problems.”
“I believe Kenya came into my life to show me the woman I want to be, the brave and exemplary woman who is hope for the world. There are many challenges to face, especially when you do it from a gender perspective. Women in Africa must be strong. And yet, I think that without this experience now, I would not have been able to realize my strengths and virtues. Realize who I am, what I have and what I came to give to the world.”
