Our adventurous study abroad trip to Spain is just days away.Today is June 4, which was our first day of class at PAC. Our Professors Marianna Ornelas, Humanities professor and Denise Richter, Communications professor, have been giving us very valuable information about the classes and the trip to Spain this morning. They told us about all the different kind of food we would be able to try, the places to go, and much more.
I am so excited about our trip to Spain. I have been counting the days of when our departure will come. I am so excited about this trip. My hopes and dreams of this trip will be that I return to the United States with a better understanding of their culture as well as ours. I hope to soak in as much of the Spanish culture as I can so that when I return to the U.S. I can share my experiences with my family and friends.
I have never been out of the country, except to Mexico, so I just have all kinds of thought of what I imagine Spain to be like. I see a city that never sleeps, all the streets filled with people at all hours of the day and night, the countryside to be green and beautiful. I imagine life in Spain to be quick and fast-paced. I can almost see the people, the food, the music all the cities in Spain.
I admit I am a little nervous about the plane trip over the pond as people call it. It will be my very first time on a plane, so I'm very excited about that. I just can't wait until we leave on June 11, 2007.
Hasta Manana!
