Study Abroad Spain
Spain has a lot
to offer to international students. It is - and has been
for thousands of years - one of the cultural centers of
Europe. It has beautiful cities and towns, offering really
old monuments as well as futuristic architecture. Its various
regions are all different one to each other, geographically,
climatically and even in personality. It is a fascinating
country to know and to know more about it.
"Spain is different!", Spaniards use to say. They don't
specify compared to what: to the rest of Europe, to the
rest of the world, or even to itself ? Two Worlds United Study Abroad
programs in Spain will give you the unique chance of a Semester
Year and Summer Programs to international students that
want to explore the country of Spain. We do our best to
supply you with loads of information so you can find the
answer to this question and to many more by yourself.
For first time exchange students,
the face of Spain can be compared to that of an ornate clock,
with noteworthy points on the perimeter, and Madrid—the
heart of the movement—in the center, Starting at XII, you
have Santander, with a history going back to the Cantabrians
and a might that reflected the power of ancient Rome.
Moving east, there is San Sebastian at the edges of the
Pyrenees, like a jewel couched in green velvet facing the
wind-tossed Bay of Biscay. Then you go down to mountainous
Pamplona, the pulse beat of Navarra, where each year, at
the Feria de San Fermin, brave souls still expose themselves
to the "running of the bulls." The hands sweep through the
throbbing tourist sectors of the Costa Brava to burgeoning
Barcelona, pride of Catalonia, which boasts the cathedral
and room where Queen Isabella celebrated Columbus's triumphant
return from the Americas.
Next comes the gaiety of Valencia with its fallas
and the ever-present smell of citrus groves and roses. Granada
and the fabulous Alhambra strike VI, probably one of the
most rewarding points in the passage of your time abroad.
There's the slow and easy sunlit Costa del Sol for lazing,
golf, and aquatic sports—not to mention the continuous nighttime
activities for which the area is famous. Then it's into
Andalusia and sun-baked Seville with its Moorish antecedents,
neighboring Cordoba standing in the shimmering heat, and
up to lovely medieval Salamanca; to the rugged Atlantic
fjords of Vigo, Pontevedra, and Arosa; to land's end, jewel-like
La Coruna; and finally to the stately antique grace of Santiago,
where so many pilgrimages have culminated. Spain is
a treasure for discover. Although seems that it is
already know for the world. Spain is the 3 most visit
country of the world and for the side of the country this
means that it is an exceptional place to study and enjoy
a program abroad.
