Biological Sciences Major,

I want to visit Costa Rica to learn how this country has integrated ecological preservation and restoration into its economy and culture. In addition, I’m looking forward to another cultural immersion. In 2011, I had the opportunity to spend my summer in Spain, and it was remarkable how much fun it was to compare the similarities and differences of our cultures as Hispanic Nations. Thus, I’m very excited to visit Costa Rica and to experience the culture of another Spanish-speaking country. I’m most excited about being in the jungle and enjoying the local food.
