Being able to learn about Mexican history in the morning; read literature by native authors, explore the business world of the country and speak the native language in the afternoon; topping off the day with a lesson in 'Art & Architecture' was an invaluable experience that this program offered to everyone. Throw in an internship at a local manufacturing factory as well as a cooking class here and there and you have a complete week of this student in the Yucatan program - I'm loving every minute!
