Leaving next week for Costa Rica gives me a mixture of emotions. I am both nervous and excited for this experience. It is a relief to have all the paperwork and placement tests done for this trip; all I have left to do is finish packing. I know I will have an amazing time, meet many new people, and learn a lot; however, I am a little worried about being homesick. I am most excited to develop my Spanish skills, visit a new place, and experience a new culture. I also am enthusiastic about the two weekend excursions; Manuel Antonio National Park and Arenal and Hot Springs. It was a long and challenging process to be prepared to study abroad, but I know it will be well worth it and will be an experience of a lifetime!
I have set some goals for this trip:
- Use every opportunity to speak and practice the Spanish language.
- Experience the culture as much as possible.
- Less naps, more exploring.
On my trip, I will be posting updates of my experience every week!
