I'm in Spain



Here's a photo of me in front of the aqueduct in Segovia, a two thousand year old structure in perfect condition. This day was pretty fascinating, with the aqueduct, the five-hundred-year-old Cathedral of Segovia, and Alcázar de Segovia, a fantastic castle whose origins date back to almost 900 years ago.

Basically, after these two weeks in Madrid I'm so overwhelmed by new and incredible experiences that I just don't know what to write. If you would like to know something about my time so far here in Spain, please, send me a writing prompt! I would really appreciate it. I'm working on some photos that I'll put up later this week. I've taken nearly a thousand since I got here, so I have some sorting to go through before I post them. I hope you're all well. Hasta luego ("See you later" -- the commonest way of saying goodbye here, regardless of whether or not you harbor the slightest suspicion that you will see the other person ever again. It's good to have hope, no?).
