Family help: I just turned down a program to go to Mexico for charity work for 6 weeks. - Help.com



This post left anonymously

I just turned down a program to go to Mexico for charity work for 6 weeks.

Instead, I accepted an offer to go to Sweden for an International Business Competition fully paid for, accompanied by some time in Spain with a host family. It was a big descision for me, and I’m nervous I made the wrong one. It’s too late to change it, but it would be lovely if someone could tell me I made the right choice.

You made the right choice. When you become a rich, famous, Swedish business person, you’ll donate millions of dollars to charity and building houses in Mexico will up your rep.

You did right.
Not because I am a Swede, but because it’ll probably give you more future options.
And Spain is nice.
