Studying abroad and extending my stay

When I decided to study abroad in Seville, Spain for the spring semester I was so scared to go to a totally new country and knowing that I knew absolutely no one. I ended up meeting the best people and creating lifelong friendships and connections that I will forever be grateful for. I was able to interact with people from all over Spain, the US, and the world and I still keep up with them to this day. I ended up loving it so much that I decided to extend my stay and return again in the fall and I will never regret it.
