Study Abroad- Greatest Experience Ever!
I studied in Sevilla, Spain for 4 weeks during the summer. I lived with a host family, who provided me with two meals a day and a comfortable private bedroom and bathroom. The school (CLIC) was wonderful as well. Class was fun, and I was in a classroom with students from all over the world. CLIC also provided daily activities and weekend trips to experience the most of the city and see other parts of Spain. I even took a weekend trip to Morocco! I would highly recommend this program.

City Life
I would recommend all the typical tourist sights, such as the Cathedral, the Plaza de Espana, the bullring. I would definitely recommend exploring the walled neighborhood of Santa Cruz, and getting lost in the narrow, pedestrian streets among the shops and restaurants (don't worry, you'll find your way out).

A2 Level Spanish
I took a placement test once I arrived, and I was placed into a class where I could understand and learn, but also challenge myself to learn more.
