Program Reviews:
Summer 2017 Participant
It was overwhelmingly satisfying to get into a rhythm day-to-day and know exactly how to communicate with the people around me despite a very different culture and language.

Summer 2012 Participant
It is important to try to speak as much with your host family and local people that you meet, even though it is tempting to only speak in English to the people in your group. I would also recommend that people spend some time walking around on their own to develop a sense of orientation and get to know their neighborhood really well.

Summer 2012 Participant
Be open minded, and do things! Do everything possible while you are there, you will miss the opportunity if not, and regret it.
