"Very nice and constructive experience"

Bianca Giovanna Otto, student from Italy

This experience was not only a linguistic but also a personal growth.

The teachers and the staff supported the participants in every difficulty and tried to meet their wishes.

Each activity and places visited were well organized and efficiently guided

it is an experience that I would do again and suggest.
