New City, New World

It has been a while since I have had the chance to write but I have exciting news! I was at my dance studio on Tuesday when my mom came in and told me the news. We were jumping around when I found I have a host family! An AMAZING host family. I can't wait to meet with them in person but I have communicated with my new mom and she seems delightful! I have an 8 year old sister, 10 year old brother, and 23 year old sister! I now will live in Vigo, Spain for the next nine months; it is a little town right on the water which is perfect for me because I love the beach! The major change for me will be the city life. In Florida I live in the acreage where land is spread out. Moving to a city will be such an experience that I can’t wait to try out. My school is in walking distance and there is a dance studio nearby that hopefully my sister and I can join. I am also excited to be eating Mediterranean cuisine every day compared to the fast food restaurants in America.
It was an excruciating wait but so worth it. For all those who are still waiting keep your hopes up because it will happen soon enough!

Vigo is in NW Spain, right above Portugal
