June 11th 2017 was the most amazing day as I arrived in Madrid, Spain for the Spain 2017 Study Abroad program with SPC.\u00a0 The day I have been waiting for finally arrived.\u00a0 I found myself \u00a0surrounded by the beautiful language of Spain!\u00a0 I was full of excitement, joy and eagerness to learn about this beautiful city, language, culture and history, I couldn’t believe that I was finally here.<\/p>\n

The drive to Salamanca was filled with a rich scenery of warm colors and hills; away from crowded highways and congested roadways.\u00a0 The clear skies and warm weather gave me contentment. I knew I was about to start an amazing journey.<\/p>\n

As we reached this prestigious university town, I couldn’t help but notice the history of the campus and it’s unique architecture. Many churches, Renaissance buildings, parks, and shops are near. It seemed like each stone was laid down and perfectly placed to design the ancient streets.<\/p>\n

In addition, the town is surrounded by the life of the Plaza Mayor.\u00a0 All ages fill this place daily.\u00a0 Each business located in the Plaza Mayor is unique and full of culture.\u00a0 You can walk all day and night throughout this plaza and see something you’ve never seen before.\u00a0 This remarkable place offers restaurants, shops, churches, cathedrals, hotels, schools, cultural art, parks, and more!\u00a0 The building structures are solid and very old.\u00a0 The pathways are of unique stones and not straight.\u00a0 Each building has its own character.<\/p>\n

This city is known for being the most important cities in Spain.\u00a0 It is an diverse city attracting thousands of international students.\u00a0 It is the most significant and prestigious academic centre’s of Europe going back to the 1200\u2019s.<\/p>\n

The view of Salamanca is splendid, full of art, history and the people’s love for their beautiful city.\u00a0 I can’t wait to start my studies in Salamanca, Spain!<\/p>\n
