Hey Y'all! As many of you know, I will be spending this semester studying in Salamanca, Spain. I leave a week from tomorrow, the 20th. I have decided to keep this blog throughout the semester. 

I will leave Atlanta on Tuesday and be in Madrid the following day. My program will be touring Madrid and Toledo before we arrive in Salamanca where I will be staying with a family for the next four months. I will be taking five classes at the University of Salamanca, four in Spanish and one in English. They will probably be tough, but hopefully they will help me to learn the language. 

My best friend from Dalton, Molly, and her friend Kristen from Georgetown will be living about 3 blocks from me in Salamanca. We Google Maped our addresses and actually saw our blocks. Thank you technology! We are all three very excited and hopefully we'll be able to travel some together throughout the semester. 

 I wish you all the best this semester!

Adios,

Mary Kathryn
