Yes it was worthwhile, I learned that I just have to be myself and not really care about what other people think about. Also, that everyone has the same problems whether they speak English or Spanish or are gay or straight or whatever. People are just people, all with the same problems. jalisa.winkle - Nebraska Wesleyan University View Entire Review
My experience abroad helped me to better understand the Spanish culture and lifestyles. The month abroad, immersed in a foreign country, helped me to gain some perspective on my life back home. Definitely a worthwhile experience! Anna D - St. Joseph's College New York View Entire Review
