YES. I learned so much about myself, Spain, and the world. It helped me see the similarities we share with people in a completely different continent, and the differences between being in the sheltered US versus a place with easy access to the rest of the world.

I learned a lot about who I am and what my goals are. I also experienced an entirely different culture. sarah s - Wellesley College View Entire Review
Absolutely. I'm still working on forcing myself to use Spanish, but aside from that, it's been a really great break from stress. It hasn't really changed my future plans, but I definitely feel I understand Spanish culture 100% better than I did before this last semester. Andie K - Wellesley College View Entire Review
I think I became more relaxed while abroad and just had time to think about myself as a person. I also realized who was important to me based on who I missed and who I talked to. I learned more about myself as a person and grew a lot. Emaline S - Wellesley College View Entire Review
