Wales, the land of dragons and sheep!.. But mainly sheep.

I feel the Wales program has a big advantage over some of the other programs i've visited while traveling over the 3 week spring break, yeah that is right, 3 full weeks of traveling around Europe, is the housing that the students are put into. The students Studying in the Wales program get put in a single room in a flat of 8. Their flatmates are all local residents of Europe, so you are completely immersed in the culture. Another great aspect of the Wales program is the brilliant Outdoors Pursuits class offered for the students, and frankly it is so amazing that you would have to be a bit daft to not take it. You spend your class times climbing mountains, surfing, and canoeing, to list a few. It is a great way to build character and leadership skills! And the last thing ill touch on but certainly not the least, far from it actually, is the program directer, Tecwyn, the coolest Welsh guy you will ever meet. Tecwyn will practically bend over backwards to make sure you are in joying you time but he doesn't limit for freedoms to explore. He makes the program worth it! I wish i was blessed enough to come back again for a second semester!
