Hey everyone! Sorry I didn’t post last week, I was extremely busy with midterms and an essay that I had to finish. It totally slipped my mind in the chaos that was happening both here and in the USA last week.
I finished up my midterms last week. Well, kind of. I have one due Wednesday, which we were supposed to take last Wednesday. My professor walked in the classroom, deemed us all too preoccupied to take it after the election results, and told us we had a week to finish it. He’s a cool dude.
This weekend, I got the chance to travel to Morocco!! I went with some of my friends that I’ve met abroad that live on the west coast. I got to ride a camel, sample traditional food, and haggle for souvenirs. It was an amazing experience, and I’ve included some photos. The blue city (Chefchaouen) was especially cool because all of the buildings are painted, you guessed it, blue.
I 100% agree with what Bethany said in a post last week, GO STUDY ABROAD (or at least travel). This has been one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Even when I feel uncomfortable or miss home, I am so glad I chose to do this. I mean, I got to go to AFRICA this weekend. I’ve been able to travel, meet people that live across the country (which I’m learning is like a different world), and improve my Spanish so, so much. With only a little over a month to go here in Spain, I realize how lucky I’ve been to be here.
So proud of everyone on the team for killing the 2k! Congrats to everyone that PRed! Can’t wait to be erging next to people who know how to (because believe me, no one at my gym does)!
Que tengáis un buen día!
