internet!

News of the day--I have internet at my home! yayyyy now homework and communication will be much easier!

I have also decided to make a list of things I've noticed about Spain, they are meant to be somewhat funny, I hope you enjoy!



Things I’ve noticed about Spain

Specifically Salamanca, Spain

1—people obsessively carry umbrellas even if it is sunny outside

2—if you are a woman over 60 years old you automatically wear a fur coat in the winter

3—dogs are incredibly well trained here, therefore it is not unusual to see a dog just walking down the street, unleashed, by itself, basically a dog walking itself and the owner strolling behind

4—HOWEVER, these incredibly trained dogs do not have well trained owners, and hence poop on the sidewalk is a daily site, that must be avoided

5—little kids are always dressed up and therefore are twice as adorable!

6—people tend to smell good in Spain, as in you will walk by a person and go yum! But not say eww that person smells bad, or they are wearing too much, --just the perfect amount!

7—Spanish women do not move, repeat, do NOT move, if you come to a walking face-off with a woman, move, you will not win haha

8—Spain= land of wind, seriously. The wind here is incredibly strong, almost every day and it’s crazy. Most funny thing to view though is the rain-scared Spaniards trying to block drops of rain from touching them while the wind is destroying their umbrella
