I received my housing assigment for Spain! I will be living in the Triana area of Sevilla. I will be staying with a woman named, Juliana, and there will be one other student staying in the house as well. I am excited to have a roommate that will be attending the same school and program that I am! The house where I will be living is about a 40 minute metro ride from my school, Pablo de Olavide. I am a little nervous about figuring the public transportation system in a foreign country, but hopefully I will get the hang of it quickly.
As soon as I got my housing assignment, I went to google maps to explore my new city. Triana is located on an almost-island off of the Guadalquivir River. From what I have read, Triana has a strong flamenco culture and it's own festivals throughout the year. I can't wait to explore my new city!
With just a week until I leave, I'm onto my next daunting task, packing...
