From breathtaking landscapes to centuries of history—Spain never disappoints 💛🇪🇸

✨ ¡Saludos desde Granada! 🇪🇸

Our Summer Faculty-Led Program in Spain is officially in full swing! While students are spending the majority of their time immersed in daily life in Cádiz, they’re also taking unforgettable weekend excursions, like this visit to La Alhambra in Granada. 🏰

From exploring Spain’s rich history and culture to building connections and memories together, this group is making the most of every moment 💛
Stay tuned for more snapshots from Spain! 📸
