Día uno en León

 Day one.... how can I describe the feeling of completing it? Some relief, some anxiety and veryyyyy tiring! Haha. It wasn't really a long day, but the one hour less sleep and the general chaotic/ loud atmosphere of a primary school really takes a toll on you.

I absolutely love it here in León, especially my school (even though it is a 40-minute walk or a 30-minute bus ride). I was greeted by a lovely music teacher called Cristina. She made me feel so welcome in the class and school, just like all the other teachers I had today did. Miguel (the sweetest person ever) even saved my life today! I'm still not used to the cars coming from opposite directions 😟 and then after he saved me from a car nearly turning me into a pancake, he bought me a coffee! I feel like the luckiest person ever writing this blog now.

The food here is great but my knowledge of the Spanish language is very low, so tonight when the whole group was tired, getting our first dinner at the accommodation was very difficult. But we still ate the food we wanted in the end 😂 When we left the canteen we got stuck in a very heavy thunderstorm (and I was in sliders 🙅). However, we created a memory we will remember forever, even when we are old and in a retirement home! ;)

I hope we have more days like today going forward,

Lots of love
