Salamanca

Salamanca was the city I stayed in for most of my time in Spain. It was a beautiful city and the perfect size for living. Not to big, not to small, but just the right size for walking every where. It had a beautiful Plaza Mayor, which was in the center of the city. It was incased by tall walls and lined with bars and ice cream shops for snacking:


There was also a really cool cathedral that was actually two cathedrals in one!
And there was an astronaut in the cathedral wall:


But more importantly, in Salamanca there were my friends. We all showed up for our first day of classes excited for our new adventure in Spain. It turned out that we all got along really well and ended up having many fun adventures while we were there!

On the left is Jessica, a math teacher from Colorado and the life of the party! On the right is Cesi (pronounced Jesi) a student from Turkey.


First in this picture we have Benjamin from France. Next is Kaja (pronounced Kaya) from Slyvania, she was such a cool person. And finally on the right is Catchi from Belgium, she had the prettiest accent.

Next is my roommate Anne from the Netherlands. She was so sweet and funny, I really can't imagine my time in Salamanca without her!

And finally my other roomy, Cassie from New Orleans. She is a spanish teacher and so it was really nice to travel with her my first week!

It is so exciting to now how friends to visit around the world!
