From January 10, 2008 until May 12, 2008 I am studying abroad through Simpson College in Seville, Spain. While taking 18 credit hours I am living with a host family, becoming active in the culture, using my Spanish speaking abilities and exploring Europe. This blog will serve as an up-to-date reference as to what I am doing, the things that I have encountered, and the experiences I want to share.

Know that I miss you all and I hope you enjoy the frequent banterings of my experiences in Spain! I will be home soon enough but for now...¡Hola de España!

Plans for May Term

From April 28th to May 11th I will be traveling for “May Term” around Spain to Granada, Murcia, Barcelona, San Sebastian, Bilbao and Madrid. Here is the tentative schedule including visits and websites of most of the places we will see. I’m not sure if the websites are in English or Spanish, so good luck! I’m excited to travel around Spain but I’m sure that I will be more than happy to get home on MAY 12 after hauling all of my luggage around for two weeks…oh yeah and to see all of my family and friends!
