“I selected the program to Spain because I wanted to learn Spanish, but I realized that becoming a part of another country entails more than just the language. Through cultural classes, salsa and meringue parties, educational tours, and becoming part of a Spanish family, I learned that people and the differences between them are just as important as the similarities. Besides being the most fun I've ever had over the summer, my outlook on the world changed forever.”  Cayla

“I loved staying with the host family and learning about Spanish daily life. I also learned lots of vocabulary and expressions, read books, and watched movies in Spanish!”  Meg

"Going from Kansas to Spain with strangers seemed a daunting task. But it was no luck that it turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life. At no time did I feel out of place, and I was soon making friendships that I would bring back with me. The program was superbly planned; A safe, rich cultural experience that explored the amazing aspects of Spanish history, customs, language and people. My host family was great, and the immersion really improved my Spanish. Yet I never felt too far separated from the group. I recommend that anyone considering studying abroad seize this opportunity to take part in such a  wonderful program."  Matt

"The Exeter’s summer program in Spain was truly a remarkable experience.  The combination of emersion and exploration allowed us to discover things about Spanish language and culture for ourselves.  Of course their were always adults if we needed them, but the ability to roam the cities with friends, is what allowed me to make so many lasting memories, and to learn things that no classroom could ever teach me.  The balance between a safe, supervised environment and being able to go out into the cities to live and breath the culture is what made this trip so special and so unique."  Shailin
