Postcard from Spain

June 14, 2018
Postcard from Spain including Madrid, Cuenca, Alcalá de Júcar & Calpe

Last days of Spain is getting closer, my return back to Norway will be July 14th, and the tickets are already booked. We have delivered our master degree and waiting for evaluation and feedback. Preparing ourself for defending next month. Furthermore, I have had visitors from Norway, which was the greatest gift of them all including the two milk chocolates they brought that is already gone somehow. After strolling around Madrid for some days, we went on a mini road trip in Spain including Cuenca, Alcalá de Júcar, and Calpe, which was 36 hours with exploring, walking and eating.

 

The Progress in the Spanish Language

 

What about my Spanish? Well, it is going forward, but maybe not as fast as I want. Frankly the time hasn’t been there or my prioritizing. That’s why I have signed up for a four-week course with one and half hour Spanish each day now, and also doing a private class once a week. Hopefully, I will complete the B2 level before leaving Spain. The difference between Spain and Southamerica in language is a big gap that has given me some confusion, but also the advantage of understanding many more people than average? I have been on both sides of the world, which means learning two different things that are similar but still have their unique style.

 

This postcard was a quick update of it all. I’m looking forward to graduation and that is mostly because my family is coming.

 

I forgot my camera with my friends, perfect me kind thing to do. That’s why all the photos are from my iPhone 7.

Forgetting your phone is easy in Cuba. Forgetting time is easy in Cuba. It’s complicated to let go of the challenge of life, like some places do not have electricity and cellphone service, and gasoline is more challenging than ever and som have very little.  However food is always here, as long you are a tourist and can buy food. If you are inventing new recipes you are also good. #cuba #cubatravel #cubaporlavida #travelcuba #cubatrip #havana
