What are you most excited for during your study abroad semester?
I am really excited to explore the city of Buenos Aires and travel around South America, if I can. I have a friend who studied abroad in Buenos Aires for a full year, and after hearing her stories and adventures, I can’t wait to see what there is to discover both in and out of the city.
