Months before Departure
Hey everybody I hope everyone has been enjoying their summer and getting the things done which they've been needing to do! I recently just mailed in my visa application to my consulate so that's very exciting! Hopefully I will get that back soon without any problems, in which case I'll be one step closer to making my way to Spain ;) In the meantime I've been enjoying my last few months in my college town hanging out with my friends and family. I have also been practicing my Spanish in preparation! A book I've been reading is "No somos de aquí". It's a pretty good book and a nice way to learn vocab and see grammar principles in practice. Anyways, I hope everyone is enjoying their summer plans and prepping for their semester ahead if they are going anywhere. Cheers!
