if you were a college student and had the choice of one place to study abroad, where?

As I begin my second year at College, I will soon have to decide if and where I would like to study abroad. The choice is pretty much up to me and funded completely by the school. Usually they want some reason for picking the place. For instance, Classics majors often go to Italy. Many kids I know seems to like Italy, and there are obvious reasons why a Classics major would go to Italy. I can pretty much pick anywhere, then I find a school there that offers some sort of program, which most colleges and universities do, then I find a reason to go there. So far I am considering some of the Scandinavian countries, Italy, Germany, or maybe even Isreal. I am majoring in Religion with a minor in Biology and Chemistry.

I would like a place that would be fun as a college student, which means attractive women and good attractions.

Just curious since I am still undecided where I want to study abroad. FYI, this would be during the first semester of my junior year but I make my decision first semester of sophomore year then apply to the school I want to study at during the second.

Also, which would be better. Living arrangements with a native family or in the dorms? I am currently leaning towards the dorms since I would be more emersed in activities of kids my age. Most schools offer both to visiting students.

Thanks
David

Fore me, it would be Italy or France because I was an art major and those places are the best. Congrats on being able to do this, I wouldn't go to Isreal now.....

as an architect, the only choice is rome.

i have been there three times and would go back in a heartbeat. i had the pleasure of living there for over a month. i actually worked there too for a firm owned and run by an american. 1973. learned how to use the metric system to dimension drawings in about 20 min. easy. makes you wonder why we resist it so much in the us.

great looking gals and cars, too.
