I travelled a lot more than usual because I don´t often have the chance to spend time in the USA.On top of that,two of the places I visited were New York and Washington which are very expensive cities.
I spent more money in telephone because international calls are expensive and my family were on holidays and did not have internet access.
I spent less money than in Spain in housing because the dormitories in Madrid are very expensive.

I was very surprised that the cost of living at the USA is not a lot higher than in Spain, actually some consumer goods such as Clothing or food are cheaper at the USA.
I really liked the way the program was run, specially because we had a wide selection of courses ranging from human resources to accountancy, it did not matter your area of interest because there were always interesting courses to be taken. I also liked that the lectures were more practical that theoretical and the facilitators talked about their own experiences. The only problem I found was that sometimes the lectures were too basic, there should have been different levels, because for people like me that I already had financial background some of the lectures were boring.

As I already wrote i would establish different levels for the lectures, specially in the kind of program i took part, because there were people with financial background and others that didn´t.
I wish I had known about this program before, it changed my life and the way I think about many cultures. I made wonderful friends from all over the world that for sure will last all my life.

The university is great, it has all kind of services and the social and campus life are amazing. _The only problem I see is that for people who need to live in big cities probably find Bethlehem a very small city.

The program is fantastic, I think it was a turning point in the lives of the majority of people that were there.
It´s an amazing opportunity to meet people from 40 different countries and to create a very useful business network.

Commentaire personnel
I have always enjoyed travelling and meeting people from different cultures and different backgrounds. When I was 14 years old I went to Ireland for a month to study English. This was a very interesting experience because it taught me at a young age how important it is to speak foreign languages and learn new ways of doing things. Since then, I have not stopped travelling and practising my english. I spent all four summers of high school in the USA, living with a family in Laconia (New Hampshire). I worked there as a gardener which allowed me to make a bit of money to cover for my expenses during the year. The third summer at university I took a summer course in Poland. Last year I studied at the University of Liverpool. I finished my business studies at this prestigious university. Therefore my English level when I arrived at Lehigh University was very good.
The advantage of living on Campus is that the lectures were very close to the dormitory where we were staying, and on top of that, Lehigh´s Campus is just at the city center of Bethlehem, therefore everything we needed was nearby.

If you like little cosy italian restaurants don´t miss Pastificio.The atmosphere is laid back and friendly and the clientele a mixture of students, young professionals and friends of the italian couple. The menu offers and incredible wide selection of dishes ranging from Pizza to Ravioli. The quality of food is superb and the price very reasonable.
If you want a quality night out Tally-ho is the best place and on thursday nights there is a karoeke party at this pub.
