It's already the middle of May, and summer will be here before you know it. If you have been thinking of studying abroad this summer, now is the time to make your plans! Where are the best locations to study abroad during the summer? With a variety of factors to choose from, it can get confusing. We have compiled a list of our top five picks to share with you. Of course, we always love Spanish in Spain, but Spanish in Costa Rica and Spanish in Chile are also very worthwhile summer options that may meet your needs. Other programs that made the list are French in Canada and Russian in Russia. Read on to find out our reasons!
1. Spain: If you love the beach, architecture, food, and non-stop nightlife, make your way to Spain this summer. With Spanish language schools all over this Mediterranean country, you simply cannot go wrong with choosing Spain as your summer study abroad destination. Our top picks for Spain? Of course Barcelona is tops, but also consider Valencia, Cadiz, or San Sebastian. See Spanish schools in Spain.
2. Costa Rica: Like Spain, Costa Rica is also famous for its beaches, but more for surfing and hanging out than the glitz of Spain. Also an excellent location for nature lovers with its rainforests and wildlife, Costa Rica is known for friendly people and the excellent quality of their Spanish schools. See Spanish schools in Costa Rica.
3. Chile: If you are a fan of cooler weather, head south - way south to Chile. As North America's summer is Chile's winter, ski and snowboard enthusiasts can find the best mountains and resorts in this South American country. See Spanish schools in Chile.
4. Canada: When summer rolls around, Canadian cities like Montreal and Quebec City relax after the big winter freeze and welcome French language students. A great location for outdoor sports such as water skiing, hiking, and horseback riding, Canada is also home to excellent dining, shopping and nightlife. American students can benefit from lower cost airfare from the US as well. See French schools in Canada.
5. Russia: Want to learn Russian or improve your Russian skills, but not wanting to tempt the big freeze of a Russian winter to do it? Both Moscow and St. Petersburg warm up considerably in the summer months. This allows you to truly explore these fascinating cities while practicing your new Russian language skills. See Russian schools in Russia.
