Kaitlyn spent the summer studying abroad in Costa Rica!

"This summer, I had the opportunity to spend a semester in Costa Rica, where I took a Spanish course, lived with a host family, traveled around the country on weekends, and completed an internship at a local school. Living with a host family gave me the chance to experience Costa Rican culture firsthand and practice Spanish every day. Outside of school and my internship, I enjoyed weekend trips and exploring different parts of the country, which allowed me to experience the natural beauty, culture, and communities of Costa Rica."

This is what Naomi said about her Valpo summer study abroad trip to Granada, Spain!

"Studying abroad in Spain helped me gain more confidence and significantly improved my Spanish. Being immersed in the language led to noticeable growth in my conversational skills, and I became more confident speaking spontaneously rather than overthinking every sentence. Living with a host family was new and slightly outside my comfort zone at first, but by the end of the month, I had built a strong, lasting relationship with my host mom. She was incredibly sweet, and through our conversations I learned so much about Spanish culture and daily life. I now feel like I have a second home in Spain, and I miss her dearly and I hope one day to return and visit her. The content I learned in my classes also helped me better understand the country and city I was living in, giving context to what I was experiencing outside the classroom."

We hope to see you there!
