Grand Valley State University
San José, Costa Rica
Why did you choose to study or intern abroad?
I want to study abroad to advance my Spanish language proficiency and by immersing myself into the life of a Spanish-speaking country I hope to achieve this. I chose to study in San José, Costa Rica specifically because my family is originally from there and I have even had the opportunity to obtain my dual citizenship for there. I have traveled to Costa Rica several times since I was a kid and I love the "Tico" lifestyle and the beautiful environment.
WhAT IS ONE NEW EXPERIENCE YOU'RE HOPING TO HAVE WHILE ABROAD?
I am hoping to travel more across Costa Rica to places I haven't visited yet and to do fun activities like hiking.
What CLASS ARE YOU MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO TAKING while ABROAD?
I am looking forward to taking Health Psychology and Cultural Heritage in Latin America (a Spanish-language class).
WHAT IS SOMETHING you're passionate and excited about?
I am passionate about photography and I love to capture my travels and new experiences in my photos (featured on my Instagram).
