Abstract	This article reports on the case of returnees from a student global mobility program, their recollections of motivation to apply to participate and their perceptions of the impact of that mobility experience 25 years later. The article outlines the original goals of the program, describing the scope and nature of the international experiences for the pre-service teachers from the state of Tasmania, Australia and the province of West Sumatra, Indonesia. Qualitative data from individual interviews with 14 of the 22 returnees 25 years after the exchange are presented. Our conclusions point to the students realising their achievement of intended benefits of the exchange, seen through 'future self' and 'realised self' lenses. We also present an extended definition of one particular benefit of student global mobility, termed 'cultural appreciation', allowing the conceptual understanding of this particular documented benefit of internationalisation of the university curriculum to be broadened.
