SO i have been in Spain for two weeks now! its crazy when i say it that way because it seems like i have been here longer but at the same time it has flown by. My host family is amazing. It is made up of the mom, who works hard and makes amazing dinners, the grandmother who is 90 and is extremely funny (we had to literally rip a bottle of wine out of her hands one night at dinner and she started crying) and a son who is 25 and i hang out with him, his friend David and my friend Marcela a lot. It has been interesting though because i have been forced to learn Spanish because my family speaks very little English. Me and my host brother do share a common interest though and that is a love for the city of New York. He plans on coming to visit if i get a job there!
School is great. I am learning a lot and its nice only going every morning until 1pm and then not having class on Fridays.
Today we went to the beach and walked around. The beach was really nice. I saw a guy and his girlfriend there and went and talked to them because the guy was wearing an Oklahoma State shirt. We then walked through the Gothic area of Barcelona and got the best dessert i have ever had. It was like a waffle with chocolate and almonds. Sooooo yummy! I have also become addicted to cafe con leche! its amazing and wakes you up for sure. Being here is amazing. There are so many old buildings and great things to see.
Well this is short and sweet but im going to eat dinner, yes we eat at 10pm at night! its crazy!
