Michael's experience with Mente Argentina

Michael did the University Spanish program at UBA with Mente from August 2018 to April 2019, plus a month of the photography program, which he also enjoyed. He highly recommends Mente to anyone who wants to spend time in Argentina because they took care of everything: his housing, his paperwork and his well-being. He liked the many events, especially those with food, which he notes is great when you are a student on a budget, and the cultural activities, a great way to get to know both the city and fellow students. He loved how easy it was to talk to people in the Mente community, and that the program coordinators were on call most of the time and reachable by text whenever he had a question or a need, which made him feel very taken care of. His apartment was lovely: very clean, well maintained and spacious. His summary is simple: he never once had to worry about room, rent, money or food.

In Michael's own words

Hi, I'm Michael Ewell. I did the University Spanish program at the UBA with Mente. I was here from August 2018 to April 2019. It is a long, long time. I also did, for one month, the photography program, which was also very cool. I love Mente, and I highly recommend them to anybody who would like to travel in Argentina. They took care of everything for me, my housing, my paperwork, my well-being, and all of that, and that was wonderful. I really liked that Mente had a lot of events, especially a lot of events with food, which is great if you are a poor student in a city. It is great to get free food. They also do a lot of fun culture activities, and it is a great way to get to know the city and to get to know the other people that you are studying with. I loved the Mente community, how easy it was to talk to people and get to know people. All of the program coordinators were on call most of the time, which was great, and if I ever had a question or a need I could just text them. That felt good. It felt very taken care of. Our apartment was lovely. It was very clean, maintained very well, and there was a lot of space. I highly recommend Mente to any foreign students who want to study here. They take care of everything. I literally never worried about room or rent or money or food.
