“I was immersed in Italian culture, learned how to make pasta, walked the beautiful streets of Rome, and talked to locals...I was also inspired career-wise by taking a class I never would have at home!”

“During my time at Villa Azzurra, I completed work that was above and beyond what I was expecting! As a biomedical engineer, I have had plenty of time to explore/design medical devices and techniques on paper and in my mind, but never have I ever put them to use in the real world. This internship changed that.”
PLAY ABROAD
Our Local Life program means you’ll get into the local scene, make friends, discover hidden gems, and engage with your new culture.
“I was able to try out new things, visit new places, and learn so much about myself and my ability to adapt to new environments. My time in Australia is an experience I’ll cherish for the rest of my life.”
