Jenna's Hopes Salamanca 2017

I am beyond excited for our trip to Spain tomorrow! It will be my first time out of the continent, and I am looking forward to experiencing a culture different than my own. I am eager to meet and get to know my hostess as well as all her children and grandchildren. I can't wait to improve my Spanish-speaking skills in and outside of classroom. Also, I am excited for all the excursions planned because I feel like I will be able to connect with my fellow classmates better. Overall, I am ready to have a great time exploring and learning in Spain.
