I'm in SPAIN!





The first picture is all of the helpers at our water station, kilometer 10, yay!
The second is of Sean, Joni and I, sitting on all the boxes of water and eating mandarins before everyone else came to help, I was really excited to be eating mandarins, since we had to skip breakfast because we left early
The pictures are compliments of my room mate, Brittany!


Hi everyone, I'm safe and situated in Spain!
The dorm is good, food okay, people are all very nice!
Weather is beautiful, much better than Walla Walla
Roomate is great, such a sweety
Lots of school and homework, but once I get used to it,it will be fine
Breakfast is amazing because I get to have nutella (an amazing chocolate hazlenut frosting/spread) on crackers along with other more healthy items of course...
Have seen the beach - the water is too cold to venture in yet though
Gelato shops are closed until warmer weather
Have gotten to see lots of friends from when the last time that I was here, cool that they remember me
Helped out with a marathon today, handed out water to MANY spanish runners, mainly men, got a free duffle bag out of it and some fresh mandarins off the tree from someone's grove + got to hang out with friends and avoid doing homework until now
SIESTA time is very cool, I will miss that when I go back to the states. Although it is only cool if you want to take a nap, not if you need to go into town and everything is closed
Have yet to do any shopping, probably a good thing
Mandarins/Tangerines, called Mandarinas here are very good, so SWEET and JUICY!
Will blog more when I have done more than go to class and eat in the cafeteria
Love to everyone I MISS YOU ALL SO MUCH!!
Hope everyone is well!
