Meet Jen and Ben

All About Jen

Image of Jen¡Hola! I'm Jen. I am a junior in high school in a suburb of Atlanta, GA in my second year of Spanish. I love the class so I was very excited when my teacher told me about a study abroad experience in Salamanca, Spain over spring break. My parents encouraged me to go! I make mostly A's and B's in school and I am fairly out-going. I love the Hunger Games series, and all types of music, and playing soccer with my brother, Ben. I'm a little nervous about being totally immersed in the language and living with a host family who speaks no English whatsoever, but I'm not going to let these fears hold me back. What better way to learn, right?!

¡Hola! I'm Ben, Jen's twin brother. I'm also a junior at a high school just outside of Atlanta, GA and I really like Spanish class. My teacher is taking a group of student from my class to a small town in Mexico called Oaxaca (pronounced wa­HAH­ka). The town is located in southern Mexico along the Pacific coast and I've always wanted to learn to surf, so it seemed like a perfect fit. I'm really athletic and I love to swim and play soccer with my sister. My favorite movie is Fantastic Four. I'm pretty confident with my language skills, but mostly I'm excited about having a good time!
