Program Reviews:
Summer 2018 Participant
I really enjoyed the cultural excursions, such as the tango show and visit to the ranch. These excursions were really well planned out and demonstrated some of the most intriguing cultural aspects of Argentina.

Summer 2019 Participant
I thoroughly enjoyed all of the aspects of this program. I think my favorite part was just the opportunity to be immersed in a country and culture that I did not know much about before entering the program. Argentina has such a strong culture, and living with a host family made it possible to really adapt to their 'norm' while improving my Spanish skills at the same time. There is so much to offer in Buenos Aires, and every day provides you with a new opportunity to see something different or experience a different part of their culture.

Emma Christine Easom, Summer 2017 Participant
You will get homesick. You will have culture shock. But, you will get over it and learn to live wherever you are. The more I immersed myself in the culture and started looking at all the positives, the less I was worried about going back home or the things I didn't have. In addition to venturing out into the city, I really enjoyed the weekend trips I took with some other students because it gave us a sense of independence as well as the opportunity to encounter a new environment. It's important to take some risks, but also to not be afraid to say that you might need to sit an experience out because you need time for yourself.
