What do you enjoy most about Spain?
- I enjoy the sense of history and diversity of Spain. I enjoyed the architecture and the food as well as the engaged conversations with the people there.

What do you think are the advantages of Spain as a destination for American students?
- Relative sense of security. Number of sites to visit and learn from within a short distance. Percieved similarities with the USA (predominately white, European, etc.).
