Hi Everyone,

So by now, everyone knows that I have moved programs from NYU in Madrid to the all spanish Universidad de Pablo Olavide in Sevilla. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT HERE.

Everyday, I wake up and walk to the city’s center and sit and read (in Spanish) before I have to go to class. There are a ton of beautiful parks within 10 minute walking distance from my house and there are orange trees EVERYWHERE. It seems to be always sunny in Sevilla.

My house is about a century old, it’s a typical old Sevillan home. It has four floors, two patios, two gardens, and a roof top terrace. The wall colors range from rusty red to yellow and the doors have a strong Arabic architectural influence. I have no internet, so all i do is read, write and watch spanish movies at home unless i go to an internet cafe. It’s a great way to concentrate, and I am loving the seclusion from techonology!

My university is like a typical suburban college campus, which I am not used to since I go to NYU which is of course in the biggest city in the U.S. But I love it. The Universidad de Pablo Olavide stretches across about 5 miles, has a full gym, great library, and tons of buildings. All the professors have been extremely helpful since I am in classes with all spanish students, it’s been a great and exciting challenge having to adjust from all the Americans speaking way too much English in my NYU in Madrid program to not being able to speak ANY English because all my friends are Spanish. I can literally count on one hand all my English speaking friends here!

But nevertheless, that is the update. My classes are going well, I’ll keep you all posted.

Love you guys!!!!!
