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?

BEST Dinner of my Life
Wow. That was so interesting and delicious at the same time. We had some Bulgarian "postre" thing and I couldn't even tell you what it was but it was fluffy and amazing. That's not why dinner was so good though. It is a traditional Bulgarian dish that they usually eat on New Year's Eve, but we had it tonight. It's for good luck.. Hidden inside were these little notes almost like fortunes from fortune cookies and they were wrapped in thin tin foil to protect them. The notes were written in Bulgarian, but on the back there was a word in Spanish that summed up the Bulgarian writing that I obviously would not understand. Whatever you find is supposed to be what you're going to experience I guess in the new year. For this reason, it's important that you pick out your own piece to be cut. I found two in my first piece, one was a little note with "salud" written on the back. Salud is health so in this new year I'll have good health! Yay! The next one I found in that piece was a 2 Euro coin, the only one in the postre. Que suerte! (How lucky) In my next piece, I found two more notes. The first said "nueva casa" and the next said "el dinero." Guess this means I'm getting a new house sometime this year and as for the dinero? I'm either getting a job or winning the lottery. I'm banking on the latter of the two.... It was absolutely hilarious because Aleks got three. What did hers say? Well the first was amor, the next was bebe, and the last one? This is when we all lost it with laughter.. Una boda. A wedding!! Aleks's new year will include love, a baby and a wedding. How funny is that? Wow. Seriously such an entertaining night. I really do love it here. Un abrazo y un beso para todos vosotros!! Os echo de menos!
