Life Update

Hi all!  Well, I wish I could say I’ve been up to interesting things, but life has been pretty mundane here for the past few weeks.  My trip isn’t until the end of the month, this coming weekend, so I’ve just mostly been focusing on my teaching, lesson planning and general vacation planning.  I’m going to Merida this coming weekend with my wonderful Northern Irish roommate who is willing to travel with my crazy ass.  Other than that, I did the one day trip out to Rio Tinto and have been spending my weekends with my friends, and occassionally going to the beach when it’s warm enough.  The beginning of the month was very warm so we went to the beach two weekends in a row and took advantage of the good weather. 

 


I also took a day trip out to Sevilla with Camille at the beginning of the month and we explored some parts we haven’t seen before and went shopping!  The shopping is just so much better in the big city than in my little city.  And we discovered some cool new things they have in Calzedonia, the tights and leggings store.  Tights and leggings are more than just a thing here, they are a way of life.  So having cool tights is a must.  We went to the look out point on top of the Mushroom.  The Mushroom is a new building they made in 2010 or so.  It’s really just a strange looking construction with a bar on the top and you can walk around and get a nice view of the city.  It also has a cool museum underneath with some roman ruins that were under the city. 


 
 
 

And I saw this chocolate delight of mine that I wanted so badly.  It’s a chocolate float of one of the many they have during Semana Santa.  Yummmmm

That’s honestly all I’ve been up to.  This week reports are due so I’ve been correcting tests and writing reports for my students at the activity. 

My next post will be my fun trip to Merida. 

Oh, and my parents come in 18 days!! I'm so excited to travel around some of my favorite parts of Spain with them.  It'll be their first trip to Europe so it should be lots of fun :)

Much love!
