It's been an exciting and tumultuous week! I've navigated a totally different enrollment system, attended my new classes (all in Spanish), and spent more time exploring downtown San José.
Hello! My name is Avery Vance and I will be studying abroad this semester at the Universidad de Costa Rica in San Jose, Costa Rica. I am so excited to share this adventure with you!
It's been an exciting and tumultuous week! I've navigated a totally different enrollment system, attended my new classes (all in Spanish), and spent more time exploring downtown San José.
Over the last 11 weeks, I have learned so much about Costa Rica. Although I'm still only halfway through my study abroad experience, it has been such a joy to share this journey with you!
Known for its beautiful beaches and tropical rainforests, Costa Rica's stunning environment draws in tourists from all over the world. How does this environment affect the people who live here?
Just a quick video (featuring two cute dogs!) about this weekend, with a nice view of the sunset from my host family's backyard. Pura Vida to all!
