Immersing yourself in another country and their language truly forces you to learn. It provides an increase in cultural awareness, education, and spark for travel. The tours are amazing- Baños especially. Zip lining, Casa de Árboles, and Extreme Swings were amazing along with seeing multiple waterfalls. If going to Quito, make sure to visit Otavalo, Cotopaxi, Teleférico, Quilotoa, and Carolina Park. You get to meet new people and experience trips of a life time. The weekends are filled with much free time so take advantage of it! As for the academic experience, the professors make you work hard and focus specifically on grammar and oral skills. Class time pushes students to really learn! Finally, the host families are welcoming and great as a resource to cultural knowledge, food, and surrounding areas.
