Walking Madrid


Whats nice about this program I'm here for (Global Ventures) is that they have had interns in Spain before so they have our whole trip set up for us. They have set up Language events where our spanish tutor takes us around Spain and shows us the sights while also teaching us spanish. Our first Language event we walked around Madrid and we saw the sights of the big city. It was so beautiful with all its rich history of churches and kings and old buildings with stories of the past. I didnt quite remember what all the buildings were because we were walking around and didnt really stop, only for brief moments in the churches and cathedrals. My favorite part about Madrid was all the stories of the kings and what Madrid was like under each rule. History is just so fascinating and intriguing and ive always had an interest in in.
