Sarah V's Reflection

The trip to Spain was such an amazing experience and I am so glad that I went. I made so many great memories with all of the amazing Ursuline girls and teachers. The fun activities, such as kayaking and biking were a fun way to experience the Spanish culture. Although they were difficult at first, classes in spain not only helped me improve my Spanish speaking skills, but also helped to prepare me for next year's Spanish class.

    The food in Spain was both delicious and abundant. My favorite meal that I had with my host mom, Marta, was Paella. It was very tasty with many different flavors. Although it was delicious, I eventually got full, but people in Spain sure love to eat, as Marta kept giving Allie (my roommate) and I more and more food.  The Architecture in Spain was very beautiful and old, another thing that I loved about Spain. It was amazing to see the Plaza Mayor every day because it is so beautiful. I am so glad that I got to go to Spain on this trip and learn about and experience the culture of Spain.

Gracias Ursuline!
