It's been exactly one year since I left Madrid. While I prefer my life in the U.S. overall, there are still plenty of things I loved about Spain. In fact, if I could go back in time and do college all over again, I'd probably become a Spanish major and study abroad in Madrid the entire year. Three and a half months was far too short! These are some of the things I missfrom my life in Spain:
- chocolate and churros (especially the chocolate, which was incredibly rich and thick)
- greeting people with besitos on the cheek
- the botellón and discotecas
- cute international boys
- chorizo
- fast, clean, and reliable public transportation
- watching Patito Feo every day during my siesta lunch break
- having ample free time to explore new parts of the city at random points during week
- getting enough sleep
- traveling throughout Europe
