What our Argentina interns say about us
One of my favorite parts about studying abroad was living with my host mom. Expanish did a really good job pairing me and my friend with her because we have a lot of the same interests and we had a lot to talk about.
From the second we landed, everything was so well organized and flowed seamlessly. I could never have imagined a better combination of activities and the support that is available from everyone involved in the program has blown me away.
I love the city architecture and layout a lot and the ability to take the subte or a bus so easily to reach new neighborhoods. I especially have appreciated the frequency of parks and cafes in every corner and how this is really integrated into daily life here.
I've learned a lot of self confidence, independence, and how to take care of myself in a new city
