Hasta pronto Espana

I am totally excited for my trip to Spain, well except for the lengthy plane ride (I get horrible motion sickness). I really don’t know what to expect when I get there, except that I will be completely lost in a foreign language and I’ll probably eat some gazpacho. I feel like I have already forgotten a lot of the Spanish I have learned up to this point, which scares me. Hopefully the woman that I am staying with will be very patient with my horribly, basic Spanish-speaking skills, I’m pretty sure I’ll get laughed at. Even if I can’t speak the language so well, I can stuff my face with all the great, new food and maybe speak less. The food is what I am really excited about…is that silly? I’m a food connoisseur, or so I’d like to think. But other than the food, I’m also really excited to meet new people and see so many new places. My goal for the trip, to not be so obviously American or a tourist, but i'm sure once I open my mouth my cover will be blown. See you in Spain!

  1. Don't worry about being a tourist, just don't meet any Javier Bardems.
