Hi Again,

Can you go on the internet and make bad review or a complaint? Go on message boards/forums and complain there. Write the name of the school. Several times. Basically make the website with your complaints/reviews be up on Google Search next to their website. So that anyone who searches for them online has no choice but to see your Review/Complaint link.

Go on Twitter. Do the same thing. Hashtag their name like crazy.

Don’t be surprised if you meet people who ALSO had a horrible experience there.

I’m part British too, raised in part by my English grandmother. So I know all about “grin and bear it” and how NOT to complain! But by writing it out and putting it online ~ where anyone and everyone can see it ~ where it WON’T go away – ever – IS the perfect response!

Now, you can still live out your dream. Just keep in mind that many things international, oftentimes volunteer run, WILL NOT be perfect!! And nothing like their shiny websites and brochures! Globally people in general ARE racist, self-serving, and openly imperfect.

When you think about it, simply say, “RESET!” and imagine yourself starting over, as if it never happened. Sounds funny, but it works!

Best,

Inky
