It’s been a few weeks since coming back from our trip to San Jose, yet it is still always on my mind. I find myself searching for other opportunities to travel back to the region and continue my Spanish. Chatting with the friendly locals, relaxing on the beaches, or even a night out in San Jose, everything is a new adventure in Costa Rica! I have learned so much studying Spanish, and not just about the language – it is the culture and people that taught me so much. I made so many great friends during the program that I will hopefully be in touch with for years to come, from fellow students, to others studying Spanish at the ILISA school, and of course many amazing ticos! Pura Vida!
