"The program in Valparaíso was fantastic. The staff was quick to respond to any questions or concerns that I had and helpful throughout the entire program. Anytime you needed anything, they were there. The host families are incredibly kind, adaptable with their exchange students, and an amazing support system to have while abroad."
