Dear Students,
We are so excited to have you in Madrid! For many, a study abroad experience can be truly transformative. Throughout the course of their time in Madrid, many students end up seeing a place that once seemed foreign to them as their second home and the people they meet as their extended family. After all, when we go outside of our comfort zone, we end up learning more about the world, learning more about ourselves, and making our comfort zones much larger.
The Spanish lifestyle and cuisine have a lot to offer to you here in Madrid. Both in residence halls and homestays you can try the mediterranean diet, siestas, and sobremesas. We know how important your housing is to your study abroad experience and we, in the Student Life Office, are here to support you every step of the way through your transition to life in Spain’s vibrant capital city.
Un saludo,
Lauren Duda, Student Life Housing Assistant
Our Student Life Housing Assistant, Lauren, can be contacted at laduda@syr.edu or in person in the Student Life Office, located in Room 202 on the second floor of the International Institute.
