My name is Mackenzie and I just attended the spring break trip to Spain with SPC! My blog post is below\u2026 \u201c Spain! What a trip! This was such an amazing experience, not only for the sights and sounds but for the friends I made along the way! This study abroad experience was not like the one I took last year (Italy 2024). This trip was a combination of 4 schools from around the states! The states included were, Florida (us), New Mexico, Colorado, and Hawaii! I made some great friends and hope to keep in contact with them. This trip pushed me out of my comfort zone in the best way possible. My favorite part was seeing the flamenco dancers and getting to dance with them! All the sights were beautiful and we had the best tour guides!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully, I did receive the scholarship for the trip, and it was so extremely helpful towards paying for it. SPC is normally so generous when it comes to study abroad scholarship because they want you to experience the world! I\u2019m so grateful to have gone and experienced a new culture!\u201d\u2013 Mackenzie, SPC Spain and Portugal (High School) Study Abroad Program, March 2025<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
