I learned so much about Costa Rican culture and I learned how Spanish is spoken in Costa Rica and how it compares to how Spanish is spoken in Mexico and in the U.S. for example. The experience was worthwhile as I formed many relationships that I think will last my entire life and I would do the experience again in a heartbeat. A student - Albion College View Entire Review
