I went to Costa Rica on a complete whim. I chose my program randomly and ISA's Costa Rica Heredia program was the hands down absolute best experience I could have ever dreamed about. I loved the classes and my professors. The directors are absolutely amazing... They end up as your good friends at the end of your trip. Also, Heredia is a smaller town so I always felt completely safe and it's a short bus ride to San José for travel across the country on weekends. The excursions were great and I always came back feeling refreshed and wanting to explore Costa Rica more. My host family became like my own family and I absolutely adored them; honestly, I can't wait to go back and visit them. I would recommend this program to every single person I meet, especially if they want to improve their Spanish!

What would you improve about this program?

Honestly the only thing I can think of is having more honesty about host families. I had one group mate who didn't get along with her family at all and she didn't tell our directors because she didn't want them to get mad. She didn't understand that the directors won't get mad, they want to help so I think they need to be more transparent with that.
