Sydney W.
Sydney's Program
Hi there! I'm Sydney. I'm in Madrid for the January Teach in Spain program. I studied Linguistics and Spanish in college, which included a semester abroad in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I love Jesus, reading, exploring, baking, writing and playing games.
I'm excited to bring you guys along via my blog. ¡Hasta pronto!
