Honors student Erica Baker spent the semester in Sevilla Spain. As she relates, "This past Spring, I attended la Universidad Pablo de Olavide in Sevilla, España, and by doing so, I found a home. Sevilla is such a warm place, both literally and figuratively, and I had the privilege to get to know this gorgeous city while learning all about the history, culture, and civilization of Spain. While in Sevilla, I had the chance to live with a host family and experience typical Spanish home-life in an apartment located less than 5 minutes from the Guadalquivir River and 10 minutes, walking, from the largest gothic cathedral in the world. I took advantage of trains, and planes, and boats, and buses to take me all over to surrounding cities and countries, I always looked forward to returning to Sevilla at the end of a long, exhausting trip. Having the chance to learn language and culture while living every day in another country is a truly amazing opportunity and one that I recommend. It goes so much deeper than just travel; you become a part of something bigger."
