Excellent Experience; Language and Culture

I studied Arabic and Darija (The Moroccan Dialect) in Rabat for 8 weeks - These weeks included an incredible homestay program and many excursions that gave the students a truly immersive experience. I feel as though I entered Morocco as a foreigner and left as a local. From being able to converse in the Souk to learning how to make the iconic Moroccan Mint Tea to exploring from the High Atlas Mountains, to Marakesh, to Casa Blanca, Chefchauen, to the Sahara Desert and more. I plan to return to Morocco many times in the future both to reconnect with my host family, whom I grew very close to, as well as to visit the incredible staff of the program who sought to make the experience as enriching for the students as possible.
