HOW
DID YOU ENGAGE WITH THE LOCAL COMMUNITY WHILE ABROAD?
While abroad, I was able to interact with locals simply through exploring the city, through social gatherings such as Intercambios, and through my internship. Whether it was making friends with a waiter or the table next to us at dinner or meeting a student from Seville, my friends and I made friends with locals and continued those relationships throughout the duration of the program. Additionally, my internship coordinator was a local and so were some of my other coworkers.
WHAT'S ONE STORY OR IMPORTANT ASPECT YOU ALWAYS TELL PEOPLE ABOUT YOUR TIME ABROAD?
One important aspect I will always tell people about my time abroad is the people. This experience was truly amazing but it was due to my roommates and classmates that I had the best possible experience. Through CEA CAPA, I met friends that I trusted and could always rely on when traveling.
