Hola Zarnium. I have studied abroad two times. Once in Mexico
and once in Italy. Had no problems either time. Best experiences
of my life. You can say I actually did it three times because one
time I lived with a Mexican family and audited some Mexican high school
classes in Guadalajara. In Mexico you can take classes in high school no
matter what age you are. When I went to Italy I had not finished setting
up a place to stay so I arrived there with no place to sleep. While I was
checking in at school there was a lady asking students if they needed a
room. Stayed with her for a few days while I arranged the rental of an
apartment. In Mexico I lived with a Mexican family two times. They only
spoke Spanish so that was ideal for me. I tried not to hang around
with other English speaking Americans. There was a French Canadian
girl there that would only speak Spanish with me. She said she did
not want to waste her time in Mexico speaking English.

If you live in the U.S. going to school in Spain doesn't make a lot
of sense since we use more Latin American Spanish. On the other
had if you live in England then going to school in Spain makes
more sense. Also Mexico is a lot closer to the U.S. in fact the U.S.
borders Mexico. England and Spain are very close.

Below is where I went to school in Mexico:
