A student Berea College
"It totally was. I learned a lot about things I was already taught in a different way because in the country I could actually see and even touch some historical buildings or aspects I knew about. I ended up fascinated with the culture and the people in Spain even though the academic system is not my favorite. "

"I learned a lot about how to be adaptable, and it's so eye opening to see how other people live."
Tammi H Berea College
"It was worthwhile but I certainly would have done some things differently next time. I think I relied too much on expecting the professors/administrators to give us all the information we would need and they really left it up to us to research transportation/food in the cities we visited."
A student Berea College
"I really learned to appreciate my life in America and not take things for granted. Simply hearing people regularly speak English, or having fast food to go to is something I took for granted in the US. After traveling, I am beyond grateful for my life. "

Autumn G Berea College
"Just the idea that their is so many other cultures around and America isnt the end all be all. With never being out of the country before this was a real awakening experience. Ive never been in a situation where I dont understand the people around me and their not being in escape. This was a positive thing though, It wasn't anyt..."
