Spain Trip Application
Thayer's Spanish Cultural Immersion Trip - Thayer en España 2025
Trip Leader: Marc Rando
We are happy to announce that we will offer another trip to Spain this summer.
This is an opportunity for students to have a culturally enriching and educational experience in historic Spain. Students spend the first part of the trip in Madrid, visiting some of the main attractions of that amazing European capital, before visiting other historical cities, such as Toledo and Salamanca. The second part of the trip is a homestay and visit in Vigo, Galicia, in the northwest part of the country. This trip is meant to enrich students' language and Spanish cultural learning experiences in addition to opening their world to friendships with native Spanish speakers in their country.
This trip is ideal for Thayer students studying Spanish who:
- are interested in a culturally immersive experience
- want to learn more about Spanish foods and customs
- would like to practice their Spanish speaking skills with native speakers
- like active outdoor activities as well as some museum tours
- have an open mind and willingness to be adaptive and collaborative
- understand there will be moments when they may be a bit out of their comfort zone
Trip Cost
The cost of the trip is $5,400. Thayer Academy may offer limited financial assistance toward the cost of the trip to those students who apply.
