I thoroughly enjoyed the immersion in a foreign culture. There are certain nuances that you come to appreciate, and also cultural aspects that make you take stock of your own culture. It was absolutely worthwhile and I would suggest anyone who has the opportunity to take advantage of this study abroad program. Brendan H - St. Mary's College of Maryland View Entire Review
