this summer, i have the opportunity to go to another country for several weeks. My options are- China, Mandrid(spain), and oxford(Britain). I really cant decide. I suck at spanish, which im taking, so mandrid seems like it would be the most helpful. But ive always wanted to go to the UK, but china seems like such a awsome experiance. Im really stumped here- do any of you have any experiances/reccomendations you can share?

Theres your answer.
If you go to China it may not come out as "awsome experience" as you say it will be.
Mandrid would be nice but you dont know much spanish and you dont seem that optomistic about going there.

whoops.

but the only thing about the uk is, theres really no useful options. china is business centric and mandrid is language centric, but UK is like arts, which i have no interest in. but i dont paticulary want to give up my chance in the UK

Come to Portugal![/URL]

Come to brazil,we are portugal,africa and the US all in one country!!

We have architeture,wine,language and arts from portugal.Poor people,religion and tipical foods from africa and a dumb president from US

We have like 30% of the clean water of the world in one country and if you arent in the south of the country every city is a comfy small little town

Any eletronic thing here costs 3 times more than US,for example an 360 costs 1000 bucks and a game around 200 bucks

Personally, I'd go to China, but I think your best bet is to find people that have visited (or live in/near) those 3 areas and ask them about it.

For me, it would come down to which place has the better food

I'd say China, mostly since it's such a radically different culture. Sounds really interesting to find out how it looks and what the food is like. Besides, I've read about Hong Kong, and everything there was supposed to be cheaper then normal. Collectors would often travel there and stuff.

I've never been outside of Sweden, but i would go to China if i could choose.

spain is overrated (i've been there, i can say that), and china's not very awesome at all from what i hear.
