Kalina's Intensive Spanish Experience in Buenos Aires

Hi, my name is Kalina. I'm a college student from California. I'm doing two months here with Mente Argentina, doing the Spanish program and the photography. I have really enjoyed both of the programs. My Spanish has improved a lot since I got here. At first it was hard to understand the Argentine accent, but you get it quick, and the photography program is amazing. I ended up doing a big project, copying the work of Coppola, who was a street photographer in Buenos Aires in the 1930s. It was a really good way to get to know the city, to travel around, and to know more places and the history. Mente Argentina has really good activities for students. I made a lot of friends going to their different activities, and it is really nice to have them multiple times a week, I think every day. It is a very cool program.
