Great experience!

I throughly enjoyed my time at Salzburg College. I learned so much about the history and culture of Austria and the German language. I loved being able to live with a host family and experience their everyday lives. They were kind, patient people who helped me learn the language better. Thankfully, they did know some English when I didn't know how to say something in German. The only bummer about the program is that all students there are foreigners and mainly Americans. I would have liked to get to know Austrian students my age compared to other American students. However, living with my host family allowed me to get to know Austrians more. I loved all the class trips we took. They were planned out but yet we still had our free time to do what we wanted. We also had a free weekend to travel wherever we wanted. This program has helped me understand more of what living in another country looks like. This was the longest I have ever and probably ever will be out of the country.
