Last Day in SLC

I leave for Spain tomorrow! I can’t believe it’s so soon. I hope that Spain will be an adventure. I hope to actually become immersed in the culture, and in the language. I hope to be able to really speak and understand Spanish by the time I am done in Spain. I think the part I am most nervous about is meeting my host family. Also, I’m nervous about not being able to communicate well at the beginning, which I’m sure will happen, and being frustrated about not being able to express myself. I hope that my host family is interactive, and that I will get a chance to get to know them well, and spend some time with them. I’m really excited for the weekend excursions also, so that I get to see more than just the city. When I’m done with the program, I hope that I have learned the language well, and I hope that I have learned how to adapt to something different from what I am used to. I also hope to become more comfortable travelling independently. In 24 hours, I’ll be at the SLC airport. Spain, here I come!
