Vale?

Hello friends!

It has been awhile since I last posted but I have been so crazy busy since I arrived in Sevilla last Monday! Life is absolutely amazing here! I am so incredibly happy to be back in Sevilla and this time for 8 months instead of only 1 month! :)

I finally found an piso in sevilla with 4 other fabulous roomies so there are five of us :) Our piso es increible! It is right in the center of sevilla! The location is wonderful and we are getting such a good price for it! Everything worked out very well! The only downside is I am about a 20 minute walk from Plaza de Armas which is where I take the bus everyday to Espartinas to my school. Speaking of walking my feet hurt so bad basically because I literally walk everywhere! I really do not mind it here though because the city is so beautiful.

Of course I have indulged in some tapas since I have been here. My current spanish food obsession is Espinaca con Garbanzos (Spinach with Chickpeas) & Salmorejo. Salmorejo is like gazpacho but thicker and it has jamon iberico in it. So good! It also has hard boiled eggs in it which I am not really a fan of buuut its actually quite delicious in the Salmorejo. Also monteditos have been my new favorite. They are these super tiny sandwiches, I could pretty much eat 12 and be fine jaja!

See below :)

Montaditos de Jamon!

I started teaching today at my school! I was super nervous but all the teachers are so nice! And all the kids are so precious! They all asked me 50 million questions and they LOVED that I was from Texas and they had so many questions to ask me about it however I think my favorite was "What is your favorite futbol team?" Since futbol (soccer) is so popular here I only knew one team so I said Betis and the whole class went wild! haha! Half of them liked betis and the other half didnt. It was hilarious! I am so excited for this year, it is going to be so fun! I already have to start planning lessons tomorrow! yay!

I am contemplating going to Lagos this weekend :) It is still so hot here in Sevilla that I want to go to the beach at least once before it gets hot. Below is a pic from when I went to Lagos last time I was in Spain.

Lagosss <3

All is well in Spain so far! I would post pictures of my apartment unfortunately I packed last minute and forgot to pack my camera cord...(so smart) so I will have to go to FNAC (similar to a Best Buy) and see if they have a camera cord or something I can use to load my pictures! On my next post I will try to have pictures!

I miss my family & friends very much but no worries I am loving mi vida in Sevilla!

Adios todos!
