What do Spain, Germany, France, Italy, Argentina and China have in common?
They’re actually the same country?
Incorrect. Shame on you.
The correct answer for those still playing is in fact that they are all possible destinations for the ABBEY Language Travel program. And that amazing opportunity you’ve been waiting for to become cool with life experience is here – ABBEY is currently looking for interested student participants.
The aim of the tours is to improve language fluency and speaking confidence, so two weeks of language lessons are included. Très Bien, Oui Oui, C’est Magnifique, J’adore! …and all those other half-assed attempts at sounding French which prove I really do need to sign up for one of these trips.
So if you’ve ever dreamt of being the token ‘exploited yet wildly desired foreign exchange student’ from the moving pictures, throw off your snug little security blankie and sign up!
Places are still available for Spanish learners (beginners to advanced) to join the upcoming tour to Buenos Aires this October. If you’re still dithering on the fence, there’s currently a June special of $4700pp for the combined flight and tour package. This 17 day package covers the costs of lessons, accommodation, all meals, transfers, excursions, activities etc.
Spain! Just imagine: sexually charged Matadors and Flamenco dancers on every corner, friendly bulls ready to charge enemies for your amusement, a free flowing river of Gazpacho for all …and various other things I’m sure are as common in Spain as riding your skippy to school is in Australia. Check out a fellow UTS student’s more atypical and politically charged experience in the country here.
