“I cannot put into words how thankful I am for API and the experiences they allowed me to have. I felt fully immersed in Spanish culture and had the time of my life getting to know the city and improving my Spanish immensely. I would recommend this program to anyone because you are guaranteed to have an amazing time, have so many unforgettable adventures, and feel supported and safe with the program coordinators! I could not have asked for a better or more memorable experience.”
