Kathryn's Academic Semester Experience in Buenos Aires

Hi, I'm Kathryn. I participated in the Summer Intensive Spanish program and the semester program with Mente Argentina. My favorite thing about my trip abroad, no matter where you go, is the people that you meet. Mente really helped me get connected with lots of interesting people, through outside activities and also with the other people in the program. The city is so open and vibrant to foreigners. There is always something you can do to explore the culture here, and always people to help you do it. One of my favorite activities during my time here was called Mundo Lingo. That is where we met twice or three times a week, people wanting to speak different languages, learn about different cultures, enjoy themselves, and have fun meeting people. I have made so many long-lasting friendships through that. I am so sad to leave this place. It really has changed my life, and I can't wait to come back whenever that is. Thank you.
