In One Word: Increíble

Well what can I say? This past week in Cádiz has been one of the best of my life. I´ve met some amazing people, eaten delicious food, and learned more than I ever thought possible in such a short amount of time.

I couldn´t have asked for a better homestay family. My host mom and sister are two of the most caring people I´ve ever met. They welcomed my roommate and I into their home with open arms. They treat us well and feed us even better. We truly are part of the family.

Cádiz has so much to offer that it can seem a bit overwhelming, but with the long days and persistent sunshine, our time here has been well spent. I´ve enjoyed the warm sandy beaches almost everyday so far, visited some incredible historic sites, chatted with the locals, and strolled though the streets just to take in the sights.

Being here in Cádiz has been an almost surreal experience. Walking along the streets that were once so unfamiliar to me, looking up at buildings that I once only saw in pictures, I feel excited, full of life. I feel at home.
