Memories from My Spain Adventure
Hello!
So this is my last blog for this Spain trip. So sad! I have really enjoyed writing them and I hope you have enjoyed reading them. I have learned so much on this trip it is really difficult to write it all down. My Spanish has improved, obviously, and I have learned, through experiencing, the Spanish culture and how they live their day to day lives. I have travelled to more cities in Spain than I ever thought I would in my life: Granada, Ronda, Nerja, the Sierra Nevadas, Cordoba, Pais Vasco: San Sebastian and Bilbao, Valencia, Madrid, Toledo, Segovia, Sevilla, Cadiz and Jerez. As you have seen from my previous blogs, these trips were always eye-opening and amazing experiences.
I have had the best homestay experience, and of course my host mom has everything to do with that! She was truly a gift in this journey and I am extremely grateful that she was there for me when I needed her. She will always have a special place in my heart and I will miss her tons. Of course I will also miss her adorable grandchildren, Sonsole and Juan Antonio. Over the weekend, Libby and I went with Ana to mass because we wanted to experience her life a little bit. She goes every day. It was a beautiful church and a cool experience. After we walked around Granada together and took pictures in Federico Garcia Lorca Park near our house.
For this blog, I have posted pictures of some of the best memories from this experience in chronological order. There have been so many, so I couldn’t choose them all! I hope you enjoy looking back on these memories as much as I do. I kinda went overboard on the pictures, but that is because there were so many amazing memories that I want to share!! I chose a photo or two from each trip and also some from around Granada. Enjoy!!
I am anxious to get back home and excited to see everyone. As the last week of this trip comes rapidly to a close, I am grateful for my family for helping me be here, my friends for being there when I got homesick and of course everyone who read my blog and shared in this experience with me. I hope I will be able to have more adventures and experiences like this in the future, but I acknowledge that this experience was unique--one that I will never be able to repeat.
Again, thanks for reading my blog!
5 days and counting.
Abrazos y besos,
Annie
