My name's Mackenzie and I'm in Spain until January 21. I'm only in my third year of Spanish, but I fell in love with the language during my first class. It's an interesting experience and I'm learning so much, having the time of my life. I'm so lucky to have gotten this opportunity!
I'm ready for you Spain! Are you ready for me?

Another Awkward Moment..
So last night I finally realized something. First of all, in my room there are a bunch of books that appeared to be written in Greek or a language similar. Same with the channels on their TV and some labels on food containers. I also noticed that I never really understand Aleks's dad when he talks and I thought it was because he speaks in a mumble-y, quiet kind of voice. When I asked Aleks about the TV, she said the language was Bulgarian which explained the books and the labels as well. Then it hit me.. There's a reason I never can hear or understand Aleks's dad. He's speaking an entirely different language! Aleks and her mom can speak it too. So half the time when I don't understand them it's okay because they're speaking Bulgarian. Just makes this trip that much more of an adventure.. Dios ayude me. Por favor!
