I gained confidence to explore the world

The greatest benefit from my experience is the confidence I now have in myself to explore the world. My host mother was excellent when it came to every criteria. She cooked us the most delicious and filling meals and was great company to talk to. I very quickly felt right at home. Be open to every possibilty!

Lived as a local and not just a tourist

My host mom was amazing! She made me feel at home and was very attentive to all of my needs. She treated me like family. I am grateful I had the opportunity to live in a new country as a local and not just as a tourist. As a local you get to experience the culture in a much deeper and meaningful way.

History, culture and personal challenge!

Do not attend this study abroad event just for the credits. Be sure you are interested in studying parts of history, exploring culture, and want the challenge of The Camino. Our director was committed to doing his job at a very high level. He was thoughtful and responsible.
