One of the best things about studying abroad in Sevilla is that I get to live in a homestay. I already talked about how much I LOVE my host family. But seriously, coming home to such a homey environment and the sound of the girls playing is an awesome feeling...much better than entering an empty dorm.
Today I found out that our house has a spacious rooftop with an absolutely gorgeous view! Definitely gonna spend a lot of time up there especially as it gets warmer, to do homework and just bask in the sun. Today Diana and I spent some time up there with Teresa, braiding her hair :)
And they have a pool too! Can't wait til it gets warm enough so we can use it!
Also, we had the most amazing lunch today. Teresa (señora) bought some fresh salmon from the market this morning and grilled the pieces. We ate them along with some cauliflower.
Seriously the best salmon I've ever had. So fresh, never frozen, the meat melt-in-your-mouth tender. Plus some delicious oranges afterward. My host family loves fruit, which is perfect because I eat tons of fruit back at home as well. The kitchen is always stocked with oranges, apples, bananas, pears, kiwi...
After dinner today, the entire family had a dance party in the living room. It was the cutest thing ever...I just came upstairs from the festivities and I'm winded from dancing with the girls! They are so adorable and full of energy; I can hear them singing in the other room right now.
Well it's been a good weekend thus far! Tomorrow will be a relaxing day (spent on the roof, hopefully!). Thinking of renting a paddleboat on the Guadalquivir and strolling along the river.
Till next time!
