I am in San Sebastián now. So far everything has been going well. My flight to Madrid was delayed though, and so my suitcase didn’t make it on the plane to SS. I met a girl who had the same problem so we reported it, and took the bus to the city. I decided since I didn’t have much luggage to carry, I would go to the tourist office with her, to get some information myself. It took us a while to find it, including a stop at the reception of a ***** hotel where we asked about how to get there. The office had siesta until like 1530 so we tried finding a place to eat, but the closest was McDonalds. Kinda sad that my first meal in Spain is McDonalds but I was hungry so what can you do.

Then I walked to my apartment, and met my roommates. I have five roommates (one is leaving tomorrow though) and from what I can tell they’re all nice. I was stuck at the apartment until my luggage came, which of course it didn’t at 1800 (like they had said) but 1930. I relaxed, listened to some music, and took a shower (since I am used to my luggage getting lost I had everything necessary in my carry-on bag.

Then I took a walk around town, and spent most of the evening at the beach… the city is so freakin’ beautiful, wow! I am totally in love with it. All the buildings and the beach and everything is soooo gorgeous.

Today I started my classes and so far it’s fun. It does feel different learning in Spain instead of a German environment, so hopefully it will be good for something.

Anyway, I have to go get lunch somewhere, because I am starving. I had to skip breakfast because I got up a little late and had to rush to school. Then I’ll get some groceries and other things I need, and probably walk around town some more. Tonight there is a welcome party so I am going to go there.

Well, just wanted to tell y’all I’m doing fine, and got here safely. Later!
