Where should I spend my junior year abroad? 10pts best answer!?
I am in high school in the states, and want to do a junior semester or year abroad in Europe (might consider Australia, but not sure..). I want to apply to several European universities, so I think it will be beneficial. I know quite a bit of French, enough to probably be fluent after a couple weeks immersion. But I would like to try out some new languages.
I am considering places like:
France
Norway
Iceland
Belgium
Switzerland
Germany
Italy
Spain
I may consider Australia. Even though there's no real language learning (besides cool accents!), Australia/New Zealand would be good for me in the future, as I hope to study being a veterinarian... What do you think? Where?? & What are some pros/cons to studying abroad?

So I am from Australian and I went to America in my sophomore year, I know you said that Australia's not really different but i have an american staying with me now, and she has found so many things that we do 'weird' or 'strange'. Even though we both speak English Australians use A LOT of slang! but anywhere in Europe would be good. Most French people are arrogant and up themselves so be careful if you go there! Most Germans that I know are so nice and sweet! Just remember that even though you are great at t language it is so different being there for 5-10 months speaking only that language and not much English.

You could come to England, since you're still speaking English and we're in the EU so cheap flights to lots of other countries in the EU. Also Paris is only a few hours away if you go by Eurostar. But all countries in the EU would be good if you also want to travel around Europe a bit while you're studying abroad.
