Afterwards

      Thinking back and telling all the stories from my trip to my friends, I realize I had such an incredible opportunity and experience. I went with such great people that I did great things with. Whether it was shopping one day for class, or going to see and hear Flamenco at night; it was all so much fun. Truly, the whole trip was so much fun, I really enjoyed every part. The classes in the mornings with the teachers were a delight and not at all boring. I learned about so much that I got to put to practical use. Chris "Poncho," our director, had so many great ideas about what to do; like our trip to Ronda which was definitely my favorite trip. When we went to the town of Ronda, we had all day to explore the city. My friends and I spent part of the day relaxing in the towns great park and taking pictures by the great cliffs, and the other part of the day climbing down to the bottom of the cliffs to check a massive waterfall. I made so many friends from across the country that I have been saying in touch with. I really got close with my roommates, and we loved our host mother Pepi. She was awesome; She had been taking foreign students for 11 years and knew all the ends and outs. Overall, I had a magnificent trip where the worst part was going home.
