Galicia Friends

Two other international students work with the same company for their internships. They are both from Galicia, the northwest region of Spain.  They make it sound like the best and most beautiful place on Earth- I think I'll add it to my bucket list.

We end up taking the bus together to work- which is a beautifully dark and quiet ride as we are usually not fully awake during the 30 minute ride.

I sometimes try to speak Spanish but I think my German kicked all of the spanish words out of my head.  I can occasionally manage a 'Deja me', 'que tal', 'Si" or a 'No' oder half spanish half german phrase.  Luckily they are both great at English and German.

One day Mr. Laborador recieved ingredients from back home and he cooked a family dish and invited me.  It was a huge chunk of Schwein with potatoes and Chorizo- really tasty.  We talked a lot about food and dishes that are served on different holidays- it mad me miss the food from back home.

When the weather gets better and they return from vacation I think we'll go for some hikes and bike rides.
