This experience is a must, especially for those seeking an off-the-beaten-path adventure in South America! Uruguay is a friendly, liberal (the most equitable country in South America!), accepting, and culturally rich country with gorgeous beaches all along its coast. There were many amazing sunsets I witnessed and the beach was nice and relaxing to swim after a long day. The people were my favorite part of Uruguay. They are eager to learn about you as much as you want to learn about them. I highly recommend my educational internship experience in Uruguay. This is a great opportunity for anyone who is studying education and would like to up their skills in Spanish. My Spanish Instructor was excellent and second to none – very personable and helped me pinpoint my strengths as well as weaknesses to work on in my Spanish progress.
