Hemingway and Cervantes wrote stunning stories for Spain; what will you write?

The story of Spain is a story of empire, conquistadors, inquisition—and also the story of Velázquez, Goya, Picasso, Dalí, Almodóvar, and Penelope Cruz. It has been written by its many peoples: Iberians, Celts, Greeks, Phoenicians, Romans, Goths, Moors, Jews, Muslims, and Christians. Today’s democratically-elected socialist leaders govern diverse and autonomous regions. After years of isolationism, Spain is again thinking globally, from the World Exposition in Sevilla to the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao. CIEE gives you a chance to live your own story on a CIEE program.

But which? Spain’s cities stretch out before you. The spectacle and spirit of Seville. Teeming Madrid, capital of galácticos and gatos. Alcalá de Henares, home to harmonious streets, noble buildings, and the birthplace of Cervantes. Post-millenial Barcelona, more modernista than ever. Engaging Alicante, a sun-drenched Mediterranean citadel. Palma de Mallorca, well-loved pearl of the Balearic Islands. How should you think about studying in Spain? CIEE programs are designed to help you get the most out of your experience, and we’ll help you find one that’s right for you.
