Challenging but worth it

I enjoyed my class a lot with Juanma. The center was really nice but I had troubles with my host for housing. The city was beautiful and the activities were fun. I took a second class with my university in the states and balancing the work load was tiring but overall worth the work. The cultural excursions were really great and having the long weekend to explore was amazing. I highly recommend traveling to Portugal to check off another country and to escape the heat. The eating schedule was difficult for me but it’s part of the experience and something to be prepared for.
