PROJECT INTRODUCTION
Start a special one-month stay in the beautiful city of Buenos Aires, also known as the “Paris of South America”! Experience the unique Latin American charm that you can only find in Buenos Aires, from tango and football to steak and wine, and make joyful memories with new friends.
Located on the other side of the globe, Buenos Aires is a city where you can experience both Latin American and European vibes, unlike other South American countries. Enjoy unique and diverse cultural experiences and create special memories.
Start a slow-paced life in a city loved by people around the world. You’ll have time to deeply explore Argentina’s charm—something a short trip can’t offer. Breathe in the fresh morning air, enjoy tango performances on every street, savor world-famous steaks, and take in the city’s night view. You’ll fall in love with Buenos Aires!
South America is a more attractive travel destination because it’s not easy to leave. There are many reasons to fall in love with its vibrant culture, cheerful and passionate people, and beautiful nature. If you’ve dreamed of traveling to South America someday, seize the opportunity in Buenos Aires.
After learning Spanish and getting accustomed to South American life and culture in Buenos Aires, embark on a journey to various countries such as Uruguay, Chile, Bolivia, and Peru! From the world’s largest waterfall, Iguazu Falls, to the Uyuni Salt Flats where the boundary between sky and earth disappears, and Machu Picchu, where you can encounter ancient Inca civilization, you’ll create unforgettable memories.
Spanish is spoken by many people around the world. Many people in English-speaking countries and Europe speak Spanish as a second language, and numerous countries in South America, including Argentina, use Spanish as an official language.
By learning Spanish, which you can use anywhere in the world, you’ll have more opportunities to meet diverse people. Communicate more easily, gain deeper understanding, and engage in meaningful exchanges. You’ll meet friends who share your passions and start new challenges.
PROJECT ACTIVITIES
This project is a one-month program where you can experience a new daily life in Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, and also learn Spanish. Join Spanish classes with students from around the world, meet friends from diverse nationalities, and embrace Latin American culture and lifestyle into your everyday life. You’ll experience a broader world.
The Buenos Aires school where the project takes place hosts students from South America, such as Brazil, as well as European students from Switzerland, Germany, France, Poland, and English-speaking students from Canada, the US, and Australia. This provides an ideal environment for encountering various languages and cultures while learning a new language.
