Remembering An Old Piece Of Advice
We I first arrived in Malaga I distinctly remember being given advice regarding culture shock and the great differences there are between the American and Spanish culture. However, I never really believed that these two cultures would somehow mix with each other to such point that I would find myself smack dab in the middle of both while I try to pick which of the two is more “like me”. Sure American culture is great but so is the Spanish and that is why it has become difficult for me to pick one over another. I can barely believe that the school year is almost over and I will soon have to leave Malaga to go back home. Malaga and Spain in general has allowed me to see many things that I would not have seen or learned other wise. Hopefully, sometime in the future, I will have the great opportunity and luck to come back to Malaga and visit the places that I have called “home” for these past months. As time in Spain is slowly passing, I have realized that this experience is one of the best experiences of my life. Not only has it helped me greatly improve my Spanish skills but it also opened my eyes to a whole other world and culture.
