My Travel Story

Hello my name is Olivia! I am fundraising as much as I can do to be able to take an awesome trip to Barcelona, Spain in June of 2017. This trip is a Language Intensive course in which I will be taking 32  Spanish classes per week for four-six weeks in Barcelona, Spain! The prorgram is hosted by EF, which is Eduation First. I would be living with a host family for the time I am in Spain, and would be living the life as a local in Spain. In return for the hard work I would be putting in for the time I was there I will recieve 4-6 Langauge credits (depending on how long I stay). 
I am interested in this opportunity because as a Nursing student at Mount Saint Mary's college, this would benefit me for when I become a RN/Nurse Practitioner. I will be able to associate with other individuals if English was not their first language. Spanish is the second most spoken language in the United States, and I believe if I was able to speak Spanish it would benefit my Nursing career. 

For more information on the program please feel free to look into it or contact me!
Thanks again for your help!
