“Using and improving my Spanish skills gave me the greatest sense of accomplishment, as well as skiing difficult terrain. My entire time at Cerro Castor stands out to me, because I pushed my skiing ability to the max, interacted with a wide variety of people in Spanish, and ate some delicious alfajores.”
—Allison J., John Burroughs School, St. Louis, MO
