I found this ad campaign, "Live the Language," done for EF language schools last night (thanks to LydiaJane). I am absolutely in love with them. As if I didn't already regret not studying abroad enough! They were directed by Gustav Jojansson, the typography was designed by Albin Holmqvist, and the cinematography by Niklas Johansson. There are just four spots- Paris, Barcelona, London, and Beijing. I can't decide which one is my favorite. I think I like the Paris one best, because it has the most clear sense of a journey and story for the main character. Both B and I are fortunate to have traveled to Paris, but not together. I'd love to go together...le sigh.
Enjoy- they're fantastic!

I also loved, loved, loved these ads. And yes, I want to kick myself for not taking advantage of study abroad programs while in school.
