The magic of Tenerife

What better way to spend my last weekend in Spain than a trip to the Canary Islands?! One of my new friends in Salamanca offhandedly mentioned she was going and asked me to join...I have been dying to go ever since I studied abroad 7 years ago so I immediately went home and booked my flight..the best part? It was free because I my travel points! Tenerife is one of the bigger islands, Its off the coast of Africa means it's always hot and sunny 😎

We went to Madrid the night before our flight at first my idea was grab dinner and go to bed early because we were flying the next morning ...but then we found out about a pub crawl which ended in Kapital night club😱 For those of you who are unfamiliar, Kapital is a famous nightclub in Madrid with  seven floors and live music ..basically heaven for two American girls who love to dance ..so naturally plans changed and we ended up strolling into our hostel at 5 am. Needless to say catching the flight the next morning was ROUGH and I'm still not sure how we did it but we made it!

Long story short Tenerife was amazing..Driving around the island listening to Despacito, surf lessons, sunsets, playing in the water like we were kids again and dancing until 6 am..I truly couldn't have imagined a better ending to my Spanish experience <3

Gringuitas en Sudamerica

A few years I studied Spanish for a summer in Costa Rica, and one of the girls I met at my school has become one of my very best friends. We were in Costa Rica at the same time, for the same amount of time (I definitely think this was fate) and we just clicked right away. We had so much fun over those four weeks but unfortunately lived on opposite coasts so we never saw one another. One day, she messaged me saying she was planning a trip to South America and asked if I wanted to join her. My immediate answer was YES! Hands down yes. Did I care that I already had a big trip planned that year? No. Did I care that it would be a stretch financially? Nope! Did I care that I was a maid of honor in my sister's wedding weeks after I got back? Absolutely not! (Sorry Kier) For months we spent hours on the phone together; a mix of catching up and planning for our trip. Although we hadn't seen each other in 5 years I was so excited to meet up and take on another part of the world together...
