Holly G Providence College
"I learned so much more of the language and the culture. I was able to see outside of the developed city of Buenos Aires and how others live, such as those in los campos. I also was able to learn about their government and the extreme sides of the political spectrum and beliefs down there. "

"I learned a lot about myself while I was abroad. I learned how to be independent, to make monetary decisions for myself, make new friends and to experience a new culture.
