I gained an appreciation for living in Europe and the more relaxed siesta culture of Spain, which I had never understood prior to my study abroad experience. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review

Language learning, friends, and cultural experience, definitely worthwhile A student - University of Maine - Orono View Entire Review
I was able to learn a lot about living on my own. I've lived on my own since entering college but this is a different type of living on your own. I was in another continent, almost like a whole different world. A student - University of Maine - Orono View Entire Review

My experience abroad was very life-changing. I grew up in a small town in a small state in the U.S. and it was my first time outside of the country. Spain was historical, beautiful and very cultural. It was definitely worthwhile to learn about different cultures and to meet people from all over the world. Sydney DuEst - University of Maine - Orono View Entire Review

I learned how to function on my own and live in a city. My language skills also improved drastically. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
Gained a better cultural understanding of Spain. Was Able to travel through some incredible places A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself quite frankly. I felt challenged like I never had, but in a very good way (maybe not in the moment sometimes but in the end). I learned about Spain by being integrated into daily life, which I wouldn't trade for anything. I did not make many friends there because it was mostly a commuter campus, so I...
