Hello! I'm hereeeee! Croatia was fun, but I don't have time for a long update now so I'll post some pictures later. My camera stopped working the morning of our trip, so the coming photos are copyright Sarah Underwood. I did however get my camera to start working again here in Sevilla, so I'll take some of my room and my señora. Her name is María Herrera García and she lives by herself most of the time (except for when her son visits or when she has students stay). She's a fantastic cook. In my room that I share with my roommate (Kathryn) we have our own balcony overlooking the Guadalquivir (a large river for those who are a bit rusty on their Spanish geography). We're still in in introductory stuff today, but we'll start basic classes on Monday. Before school actually starts here, somewhere around the 20th, we'll have classes on language and culture with the program. Pretty exciting. Anyway, Sevilla is a beautiful city. I really like it here and can see why it's such a popular study abroad location. Great food; pretty, not-too-big city, very clean everything, lots of gardens and trees, a huge river, and the people we've met so far have all been relatively nice. That's all for now except that I miss you all a lot and if it weren't so darned expensive, I would want everyone to visit. <3

Hello! I leave tomorrow and won't have internet access until the 27th. I'll be in Madrid, then Rome, then Ancona, then Croatia. Then Ancona, Rome, and Madrid again. I'll be taking plenty of pictures, so expect a ton as soon as I get back. I'll miss you all! Dad, and Meg and Robert and my wonderful friends! Have a good few weeks and I'll hear from you soon. Love you all!
