I'm leaving in 4 days(!) to spend the spring semester studying abroad in Madrid, Spain. I'll be there from January 26th until July 1st (back just in time for the 4th of July!). I will be studying in the faculty of Philology (linguistics) at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. I will be living with a host family that has two boys, ages 6 and 7, so it should definitely be a fun time. I haven't had great host family experiences in the past, when I did summer programs in Ecuador and Costa Rica, but I got an email from the girl that lived with them last year, and she said that they were awesome, so I'm really excited about it. She even said that they had wireless internet, at least last year, so that would definitely make things more convenient for keeping in touch.
Speaking of keeping in touch, I will be getting a cell phone once I get over there, so I'll let you all know what the number is, but it will probably be easier (and cheaper!) just to Skype, especially if I do have the wireless internet access in my house. My skype name is jessica.bridie, so feel free to add/call me!
My address while in Spain will be:
C/ Mártires Concepcionistas nº 5 1º D, 28006 Madrid
and my email will be the same as normal.
Anyways, I should probably get back to the packing, which is turning out to be quite the endeavour. I don't know how I'm going to survive for 5 months with only 11 pairs of shoes!
Hasta pronto,
~J
