study abroad

Hi my name is Antonio. I am a sophomore student at Middlebury College still hesitanting about where to study abroad. I am French but have lived in New york my entire life and speak fluent spanish. I am also learning Portuguese. I am a history major. I have narrowed my choices down to 4 places.( no preference in any):

1- Niteroi, Brazil: It's just outside of Rio (Universidade Federal Fluminense) and offers good courses in History and Poli. Sci. Since I have just begun taking Portuguese it would be a language experience. Never been there.

2- Madrid, Spain: This would be an experience purely for the culture and the school. Have never been there.

3- Buenos Aires, Argentina: (Universidad de Buenos Aires). Also would be for the culture and have never been there.

4- Paris, France: The school would be Science Politiques if I were to be accepted. It's a very prestigious school and I would go mainly for that. I have been to Paris many times but have never lived there or spent more than two weeks.

Please give your opinions on which one I should chose. Should I go to one place for the year, 6 months one place and 6 months another, or just 6 months abroad. Thank you for your comments
