This study examines the extent to which international students engage their friends in cross-

cultural interactions. The results of the study show that studying abroad does not give students

many opportunities to integrate into the local community and fully explore the new cultural

environment. However, students surrounded by local and their fellow international students met

foreign cultures, which motivated them to explore and interpret the encountered diversity, and

challenged students’ preconceived judgments and stereotypes of specific cultural groups, leading

to changing attitudes and values.
