A glimpse of Spain Abroad

Alexa Young, CA

"A huge thank you to you and Leanna and the rest of your team for a wonderful Spain Abroad semester!  Our son had a wonderful time and, as we hoped, the experience provided a much needed reset for him.  He seems more relaxed, confident, and adventurous than before he left.  Your program exemplifies everything a gap year experience should be and we are eternally grateful” - Parent

Morgan James, NY

"I had an amazing time as a member of this program.  It provides an unforgettable experience for anyone looking to immerse themselves in Spanish culture and live independently in another country.  I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to travel abroad and make a lifetime of fun memories" - Student

Lisa Driver, MI

"I attended Spain Abroad in 2023. It was a wonderful experience. Johnny and Leanna were so helpful and kind, really two of the most amazing people you’ll ever meet. You can tell they have your best interest at heart and they genuinely care for all the attendees. The program helped me come up with plans for the future and what I wanted to do." - Student

"I really enjoyed this program! Estepona is a phenomenal town with great people, so much to do, and you can walk anywhere you need to go. The day trips were amazing! Most of the towns we went to I had never seen anything like it. Also the food was awesome. I am absolutely going to go back to Spain!  10/10 recommend!"
