I begin my study abroad experience on Jan 8th. The purpose of the trip is to augment my Spanish speaking abilities, to learn about the culture of Spain and the surrounding countries, to further my education, and to have a little bit of fun along the way. I am taking classes in international terrorism law (in Spanish), campaigning in Europe, Politics and Regionalism, European Integration, and Spanish. I plan to update this blog regularly so feel free to post questions and comments.

Jan 13
Today I finished up my orientation at IES. It was alright but not the most exciting thing. I also went with hannah to the Sagrada Familia which was amazing. The church, although under construction, was one of the most beautiful and most unique churches I have been in. We went to the top by elevator, because I was not climbing over 400 steps, and took in the amazing views of barcelona. Later in the day I completed a scavenger hunt which was given to the students by IES. It turned out to be very exciting and educational as I explored the city with a friend for over 2 hours. Tonight I am going to take a night off from the bars and go to a movie near the port.
