Foreign On This Side
Peru, Spain and wherever else this journey takes me
About Me
DJW
Even though I graduated in May 2010 from Davidson College (English major), I still view myself as a student. You could say I'm a student of Life. After being an assistant English teacher in Madrid, Spain, I'm still learning as much as I ever have, now in San Francisco! Where will I go from here? Who knows! This blog, my musings about my time here and in Spain, is a continuation of my Peru study abroad blog. Enjoy!

Long Weekend Part II: Sevilla
It's been a long time coming, but here are just a few of the pictures I took in Sevilla.
So far, this sunny city with its broad, tree-lined streets has been my favorite city in Spain. If the Ministry of Education let me pick my placement city next year (and not only the region), Sevilla would be it! The tapas was amazing, the flamenco was mesmerizing, the monuments were breathtaking, the pace was slow and the climate...perfect. While in Peru, I found myself loving the cities that reminded me of Charleston, SC -- sunny, relaxed cities, with bright-colored buildings with white trim, lots of churches and parks, and palm trees. The cities in Peru like this, for me, were Trujillo and my hometown, Arequipa. My Charleston in Spain (and it's way cooler, sorry SC)...is Sevilla. I can't wait for an excuse to go back!!
