WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE CLASS WHILE ABROAD, AND WHY? (IF YOU INTERNED ABROAD YOU CAN USE THIS SPACE TO TELL US ABOUT YOUR INTERNSHIP EXPERIENCE IF YOU PREFER)
My favorite class I took abroad was Principles of Marketing! It was interesting to learn about and I love how engaging and interactive the teacher made the class. We learned a lot about local businesses and the differences between marketing tactics in the US and Spain. I genuinely looked forward to class each day because of how interesting the teacher taught the material.

 

WHAT'S ONE STORY OR IMPORTANT ASPECT YOU ALWAYS TELL PEOPLE ABOUT YOUR TIME ABROAD?
One of my favorite ways I was able to engage with the local community was by going to the local markets and communicating with the locals. My roommate was practically fluent in Spanish so on our daily trip to the market we would try to engage and speak with the other locals. It was so fun to get to practice our Spanish as well as learn more about the locals and their daily habits. We would also try to speak in Spanish as much as possible when ordering at restaurants, getting coffee, in Ubers, etc.!
