Warning: This Post Contains No Useful Information About My Life In the Near Future

There is almost nothing that 6 different kinds of chorizos and cheeses can't fix.
Thank you Spain for understanding that sometimes food is the only real comfort in life.

Unfortunately, there a few things that this country was not designed for;
Being up early-Starbucks, and every coffee place opens at 9. School starts at 8:30
Getting anywhere on time- Train comming at 8 could mean anytime between 7:30 and 9
Boobs-Mariah and I went to 3 different underwear places, they all only carried bras up to B
Exchange students living on a budget- Just look up the euro to dollar conversion now

At the moment, I am living with Mariah and her host family.
I don't even want to talk about what it took to get me here.
I am safe, with all of my stuff, and for one week I know what my life contains. After this week, I am going somewhere.

I would like to take a moment to thank AFS, for deciding it was a good idea for me to continue going to the school I have been going to this entire time, despite my recent housing change.
It now takes me nearly 2 hours and 3 different methods of transportation to get to school every morning, where I then collapse and sleep through all of my classes. Who doesn't love getting up at 6 am?

I'm going to go eat more Spanish food now, and remind myself that even though things probably can't get any worse, I still have Mariah, and her amazingly stocked kitchen.

Love,
Chloe
