This experience presented itself to me after I brought up that I wanted to study abroad. After I filled out interest forms somebody from the program contacted me and went over the money and the academic program that I would be going through. Since I did the academic program I went to the school during the week. There was security that followed me to and from school. Never did I feel unsafe! This opportunity also gave me the ability to grow athletically and socially, along with my academics. I would 100% do it again! The memories and friends I made will last a lifetime.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?

The most nerve racking moment was meeting my host family for the first time. I overcame it by being myself and using my spanish knowledge to speak to them. My host mom was attempting to learn English so we helped each other.

Pros

Traveling while getting school credits.
Having access to the gym since I am an athlete.
The unique foods, places, and culture of Costa Rica.

Cons

Underprepared for class since mine changed a day before my flight. This was due to student population issues.
Transportation could’ve been better/ more convenient.
I did not buy the phone plan before going and quickly had to purchase it. Should be noted somewhere!!!
