This week has flown by and as I come to the realization that my time here in Spain is quickly coming to an end. It is very bittersweet because I am so excited to go home and see my friends, family and celebrate graduation with graduation festivities. But the other part of me aches knowing I might not ever see all the wonderful people I have met throughout this whole experience ever again. As much as I hope and pray this is not true and that I will see these people again there is no way of knowing. I will just have to come back to Barcelona one day!
One of my favorite parts of this whole experience was being able to become apart of a host family. I have grown to love my host family. I feel like I am the oldest child and that I finally have the younger brother and sister that I always wanted. When I go back home to Kentucky it will be weird for me not to see them everyday and I will miss their company. They have taught me so much. My host mom has been able to teach me about life and love from her life stories that she has told which has allowed our relationship to grow. The children and my host father have been able to teach me Spanish and about the culture of living in Spain. I am forever grateful for all that they have done for me. There is nothing I could ever do to repay them for their time and love that they invested in me.
