Meat- there is so much meat in Spain, so many types and they are delicious! Candy- So ...

I have two more days of cramming and stressing, and 5 more days until I find out just how badly my finals went. And then. SUMMER and not losing a single second of my last couple weeks in Spain. My host family also taught me how to drink from a 'botijo'. That's me, drinking from a botijo. Once I'm back in the states I'll give a better refectio...

Spain According to Lotte. Sunday, February 19, 2012. Sleeping in Castles: That's what we do in Spain. So the AFS orientation was awesome. It started with Malte (the german exchange student also living in Valladolid) and I taking the train by ourselves to Madrid. In Madrid we were supposed to meet up with an AFS volunteer. Everything went great, until we ended up in a deserted part of the train station, no restaurants or stores and very few people. We were confused. 'This is Madrid right? We are you guys?

Spain According to Lotte. Sunday, April 1, 2012. 8220;I don’t want to not live because of my fear of what could happen.” -Laird Hamilton. I longer I'm in Spain, the harder it is to write and explain what my life is like, especially now, with so. Much stuff going on. Two weekend s ago I went to Sevilla to visit Noelle. I got to skip school on Friday to take a 8 1/2 hour bus ride. Going there wasn't too bad, the bus had wifi, so I kept myself amused. Sevilla is a gorgeous city! The Cathedral from a distance.
