First Timer!

Coming to Argentina I was super nervous! I had never traveled outside the USA. (just along the east coast) I had never traveled alone. I had never been on an airplane. I never even had a passport. HOWEVER, I did it, and succeeded! I was in Buenos Aires for two months volunteering for an NGO. My main goal for coming to BA was to gain confidence in my Spanish, I could always speak it and understand it but never had the confidence to speak it. During the time I was planning my trip R2A was AMAZING! As a first time traveler, you could guess I had questions about everything! I want to say that I had a pretty long email feed with R2A filled with questions and assistance. They always got back to me so quickly and they were always so nice! Then when I got here I couldn't believe the amazing home I was staying in! The family was so welcoming and wonderful. My first full day in BA R2A took me everywhere I needed to go, and showed me how to get to my internship sites! I felt so at ease because I was given my own mini field trip tailored just for me. After that day I knew I would be fine because Will and Simon were SO helpful and understanding! Now that I have completed my 2 months in BA I am so over joyed with my personal growth! Overall, I say R2A is literally the best program out there!
