My experience in Costa Rica was life changing. Before the journey, I didn’t have any background in Spanish. The whole point was to challenge myself and it was indeed a challenge. The people there were so welcoming, the atmosphere was welcoming (almost all of our classes were outside), everything about the journey was welcoming. I had class with teachers by myself, since I wasn’t as advanced as my peers. I was beyond nervous, however they helped me improve so much and everyone was so kind about my situation.
We travelled around Costa Rica, met new people, experienced the culture. We were fully immersed and it was without a doubt, one of the best experiences of my life.
