"Since middle school, studying abroad in Spain was always a dream of mine.
In September of 2011, that dream became a reality when I began my full academic year in Madrid. Without a doubt, those ten and a half months marked the most incredible and surreal time of my life.
During my year abroad, I was lucky enough to travel to several other Spanish cities as well as other European countries.
I immersed myself within the Spanish culture, especially though music, art, food, and language exchanges. I gained an entire new appreciation of cultures and became more globally aware. Now that I’m home, I am thrilled to be named a Study in Spain Student Ambassador. Not only do I still feel tied with Spain and my cherished memories there, but also now I have the opportunity to affectively promote studying in Spain to other students.
The knowledge that I gained while studying in Spain changed my life indefinitely and has already proven to benefit my career goals and has enriched my day-to-day life."
