SPC student, Jessica Bichsel, shares her experience in Salamanca, Spain with St. Petersburg College after receiving a study abroad scholarship: “SPC’s Study Abroad in Spain has been amazing! The experience of immersion into the city of Salamanca has been challenging, but my host mother was very welcoming, and have made me feel like I am at home, and although my Spanish has not been the best, we practiced every evening, discussing a variety of subjects. I am achieving things I could have never imagined!!<\/p>\n

The city is beautiful and has such a rich, relevant history. Visiting the Cathedral was breath taking, to be standing in a place with so much history, and beautiful temples. Professor Levin took the group on a climb up the bell tower, which lead to stunning views of the \"scholarship<\/a>cathedral inside and the city outside. The University of Salamanca is amazing! To see the classrooms, the library, and walk around the halls where students have walked for hundreds of years was mind blowing. EStudio Sampere teaches at a pace where I can actually comprehend and speak the language! We participated in cultural activities daily, such as visiting local museums, exploring street art, learning how to Flamenco dance and visiting with a bullfighter. The teachers have been so patient, and informative. Professor Levin is a wonderful teacher, she has so much passion for teaching, she kept me motivated to learn, and keep on going. Her knowledge of the history of the city and the stories she tells made me feel like I was there, in those ancient times. We were able to go on excursions to neighboring towns like Segovia and reached the top of a mountain to visit the medieval ruins of Penia de Francia. Salamanca is a beautiful city, I have made great friends with locals and my fellow SPC students. This trip has changed the way I see the world, and I can’t wait to see more of it!!”-Jessica Bichsel, SPC student, Spain 2018\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
