What is the best country to study abroad in for a high school student during the summer?


Question Details: Please share any input reguarding past experiences in a perticular country or countries and information on the people, food, and enviroment. Im an extremely flexible person and will eat anything you put in front of me. I would very much prefer to have at least some if not extensive teachings on such country's language and culture. Thanks a ton!

What is the best country to study abroad in for a high school student during the summer?
I've studied abroad (year after high school) in Germany and (now) in Poland.





Germany is pretty Westernized. Most western European countries are very American and the food is relatively similar to American. I liked Germany when I was there, but the area I was in, the people were very cold. It's a gorgeous country, though. German is not such an easy language, but almost everyone knows English. It's also really close to a number of different countries, if you wanted to travel a little.





Poland is very different. I ate pig's blood a few days ago (which is totally normal here). The people here are really nice, but in Warsaw people don't smile as much. There's been a lot of problems in Poland because of Germany and (former) Soviet Union and a lot of people have the 'we're victims' kinda mentality. But people are usually up for a good party or a nice walk.





I honestly liked Poland better than Germany, but where you should go depends on what you're interested in.





I've travelled to various other countries (France, England, Ireland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, etc.) but didn't get as much of a view of the people. Switzerland and Austria are similar to Germany. Czech Republic is similar to Poland. England is really English. If you have more questions about Poland or Germany, I'd be glad to answer more specific questions more in detail.
