Granada is so full of new sights and new sounds, but on days like today sometimes it just feels best to lie in bed and relax a little. Travel, orientation, and classes have all left me a little worn out, but so far my time in Spain has been full of amazing new experiences. While the act of getting here is definitely the hardest part, Spanish eating and sleeping schedules are a little difficult to get used to, as is keeping track of money when you’re paying in Euros rather than dollars. It’s actually nice that almost nothing is open on Sundays so that I can have some time to catch up on sleep, homework, and podcasting.

Ann enjoys knitting, watching movies, and playing violin in the group Mariachi Serrano de Claremont. She hopes to pursue a career in broadcast journalism after finishing her studies, and can't wait to document her exploration of the rich history and culture of Andalucia during her time in Granada.</span></p>
