A little more home-stay info

So I just got word from Enforex with a little information on the home-stay, though still not much considering that I'm going to be moving in for 5 weeks, but I guess all I can do is go with the flow. Anyway my Mrs. Benito Ramos does live by herself, and she has hosted students before and it sounds as though she will be hosting other students my age at the same time so that will be pretty cool. Thats all the info I have for now, I'll keep the blog posted if I hear anything else. Hasta luego (I have to start practicing my spanish now).

A few more details, sort of

So I thought it might be a good idea to share a little more detail about the school and city that I'll be living in. Salamanca is a city of about 160,00, just a little bit bigger than East Hardwick. Located between the Portuguese border and Madrid, as can be seen on the map below. It is a college town hosting the university of salamanca and of course many other small language schools. It sounds like the language is great, and here are a couple links with more details. http://www.enforex.com/school-salamanca.html
