Being in Madrid for three weeks was probably the best thing that I ever
decided to do. I never had my heart set on going away for a semester but this
short term program fit my schedule perfectly. Not only did I have the time of
my life but taking six credits in three weeks let me have a very easy last
semester at Towson. Living with a host family while in Madrid was another good
choice as I was surrounded by the language and the culture at all times. My house
mother cooked for me and my roommates three times a day and was always there to
help us. She could not speak any English so this was a great way to really get
to know the Spanish language and culture all at once. I wish that I was able to
go for just a week or so longer but that gives me more to do in the
future.
