I am interested in travelling to a place like London because I am interested in being in a new environment with a different culture (though not THAT different) and I DON'T want to learn a new language. I've taken 3 years of spanish (and hated it) and I speak mandarin semi-fluently, and I am also considering going to Taiwan because that too would be interesting. The thing is, though, I'm bored/tired (not the right words, but close to what I feel) of my school and I can get enough of Chinese culture where I live without going to Taiwan/China. As for summers, I plan to be doing other things for most of the next three summers and I am more interested in the school experience.

Also you do bring up a good idea on wether this is pointless or not, and that is also why I'm posting this, to learn more about it while it's early. I still would like to hear if anyone else has studied abroad, and their experience there. Has anyone travelled to a place with a dominant language that they have never learned?, etc
