AIFS Program: Madrid, Spain | School: University of Vermont | Bio: I’m Camille and I’m a junior at the University of Vermont as a Global Studies major studying abroad in Madrid at Universidad Nebrija. I’m French American which already has many perks but speaking French has most importantly helped me learn Spanish, which is now my passion. I took a gap year before college which ignited my love of solo travel and exploration, during which I spent three months in Barcelona. Now I’m tackling Madrid because it’s new to me and bigger than Barcelona. My favorite ways to discover a new city it getting lost in winding streets, looking for activities off the beaten path, and hopping from one coffee shop to another. In my spare time, when I’m not traveling, I like to learn how to play obscure instruments (like the autoharp). I enjoy cooking, learning history, and reading about far away places. Join me in my quest to know Madrid inside and out!
