Alexandra's experience with Mente Argentina
Alexandra (Allie) spent two weeks in Buenos Aires with Mente Argentina and calls it great. She stayed in a homestay with a super welcoming, warm family who help her with everything. Her classes were very intense but very good, and even in a short time she feels she is learning a lot. She also joined the barman program, describing the bartending classes as really cool and hands-on, shared with people from around the city and other foreigners from places like Colombia and Brazil. She says Mente offers plenty of opportunities to do whatever you want, and calls the whole experience awesome.

Hi, I'm Allie Shapiro, and I have been here for two weeks with Mente Argentina. It is great. I am doing a homestay. My family helps me with everything. They are super welcoming and warm. I have been taking some classes. It has been very intense, but very good. Even though I have been here for a little bit, I feel like I am definitely learning a lot. I am also doing a barman program, and their bartending classes are really cool, very hands-on, and there are a lot of people from around the city who do it as well, and other foreigners, like people from Colombia and Brazil, so it is nice. It has been a really great experience. Mente provides an ample amount of opportunity to do whatever you want to do. It is awesome.
