Sluvotsky I sprint too XD I remember when I was little my mom grabbed my hand so that I wouldn't. She was all, Don't worry, even if the car does come too soon it'll hit me before it hits you. I was like. OH THANKS MOM. SUCH A SENTIMENT.
Very comforting. xd

Belgium is great for languages because they speak Flemish (SP?) and French so you could learn two at once. J'adore Bruxelles!

It really would depend on the language I would want to get better at, but I'm going to London next week, both to practice my english amongst real english people and to finally meet my Chris! heart heart
If I'm lucky, I get to go to New Zealand in a few years while getting educated. I'm going to nurse school and the one I want in on lets you go abroad for 3+ months if you want to. Ofcourse you have to pay your ticket and all that yourself, but you get paid for working at the hospital. You can also pause your education at the school if you want to stay abroad for some extra months or a year. It's really great. I've got a friend in NZ who's told me I can stay with him.

chocfudge I was an exchange student in the US. To be specific Fairmont, Minnesota. It's a small town with about 12,000 inhabitants. I was there till end of June last year. Now thinking back I'm not sure if the US was my best choice. I live in Germany and feel like US American culture is a lot like the German one. Duh, a lot of ancestors of the people I met in Fairmont were Germans.. But nevertheless it was a really interesting experience and I can recommend spending a year abraod to anyone. Even if you're rather shy. It's really great to improve your language skills, make new friends and exciting experiences! >.< Almost everyone I've ever met from Minnesota had German heritage, including myself. I have the stereotypical German eyebrows to prove it!

I've been to Spain to practice my spanish *of course I also went to France while I was there, and it was awesome even if I didn't speak French, I didn't have a problem with anyone*
I'm going to Morocco to study and practice Arabic. But I've been brushing up on French as well, I've heard you get to know French very very well.
Then next year I'm going to China to do an intense Mandarin program.
