Lankey: Morocco - French and Arabic Study Abroad Programs

What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
The summer course was super fun and I couldn't imagine a better way I could have ended my summer. The activities are a great introduction to all the cool things you can experience in Morocco and I especially love that this course is accessible to anyone regardless of their language proficiency. All the staff is super kind and helpful and very fun! This course is also a great way to meet new people from many different backgrounds, so not only are you learning about Morocco but also many other different countries and cultures. I enjoyed this course very much and I guarantee my experience in Morocco would have been much different and definitely not as fun if I had not chosen to go with the Lankey summer course!
