HASTA PRONTO MI QUERIDO HUELVA

My Goodbye Party

Before I came to Spain( first time out of Europe), I was really nervous and sad leaving behind what I knew in the United States. Leaving Spain was even harder after making a my second home in Huelva. This has been an unforgettable and wonderful experience for me on so many levels meeting and getting to know so many people from different countries and making friends from all over the world even though there were some bumps and bruises on the way. This is an experience that has been beneficial for me helping me learn how to survive in a foreign country like asking for help in the streets or in the classroom, how to connect without fear and letting go of people you love, and being able to use my target language every single day in all kinds of situation. I have discovered a side of myself that had been buried under schoolwork and studying is that it is necessary to have fun once in a while and to be in unfamiliar situations. I have learned how to adapt in new circumstances thrown at me, surviving in a new environment with nobody to fall back on initially and meeting people with different backgrounds.
