Bye Barcelona!


Alex Verch
Date: April 26th, 2011
            After four months of living in Barcelona it is now time to go back to the United States. I can’t believe how quickly these last 4 months have flown by. It feels like just yeserday that I was boarding the plane at JFK airport. Now I’ll be boarding it with tears in my eyes to go back home.
            I could not have asked for a better abroad experience. Learning the city, the culture, and meeting new people every day in Barcelona has been more than I could have every imagined. I came here knowing very little about Spain and Barcelona and I can now leave with a true sense of the Barcelona Culture.
            I have become very independent as a result of living and studying here. Traveling every weekend and living in my very own apartment has taught me a lot about being an adult. I now am a seasoned traveler, can speak decent Spanish, and can navigate my way around the city of Barcelona.
            I will cherish every moment I spent in Barcelona and can assure you I will be back one day in the near future.
