Good news: I am feeling one hundred percent better!! YAY!!!
So this past Friday, I went to Cordoba with half of my classmates and, I have to be honest, I was kind of disappointed in how not impressive the city is. The only thing really to see there is this Mosque-Cathedral that, coincidentally, Cordoba is famous for. It was a mosque way back in the day and then the Catholics came and turned it into a Cathedral and it was just really pretty and impressive (especially considering it was built a SUPER long time ago and is still standing).
In other news, I am signing up today to go on the trip to Morocco this upcoming weekend, which I am super excited about, because it's going to be my first real trip outside of the Granada area, and a lot of my friends are going.
I'm actually pretty excited about the next couple of months, because this is when I'm going to be doing all of my traveling. The itinerary is as follows:
10-12 October: Morocco
17-26 October: Italy (17-21 Rome, 21-24 Florence, 24-26 Venice)
31 October-2 November: chilling in Granada (after Italy, I figure I'm going to need it)
6-9 November: Madrid visiting Megan!!
13-16 November: Barcelona
21-23 November: Switzerland!! (Hopefully Ticino, but I actually have to plan this first)
28-29 November: Sevilla (assuming I have enough money)
5-8 December: chilling in Granada and preparing for finals
12-14 December: preparing to go home; Malaga (yeah hanging out in the airport all night with ALL of my stuff!); HOME!!!
So yeah, as you can see, I'm going to be pretty busy, but I'm so thrilled about it all, I don't even care how busy it's all going to make me. :) And I feel like I'm not really traveling outside of Spain too, too much (three trips outside of Spain, three trips inside Spain, plus the Alpujarras and Cordoba trips, and Megan visiting Granada, so like six trips inside Spain, plus all the weekends that I've spent just chilling here). So I still feel like I'm enmeshing myself in Spanish and not abandoning it completely in favor of English-speaking countries or whatever.
