Hello world!
The last couple of weekends I haven’t traveled too much, but I’ve spent more time seeing local attractions. I met a girl (Nia) in my course (they same thing as we would call major) and she showed me around Cowny. It is such a beautiful town! The castle is breath taking!! I still can’t get over all of the stone around here! It is so absolutely gorgeous!
This last Sunday I also went to Nia’s house to spend time with her and her family! She showed me around Llandudano which is where Alice and Wonderland was written! There were little wooden sculptures of the characters all over the town. We walked down the pier and she drove me around the Orme. It is basically a rock outcropping that you can drive around, it was absolutely breath taking!
It is really nice to be making some friends because slight homesickness is starting to set in. I love it here and I am so excited for all of the adventures that I am taking; I am also going to be extremely sad to leave! My flat mates are such amazing people and I have grown really close to them as well! I have been seeing pictures and videos of all of the harvest festivities back home and it makes me really miss it. This is my favorite times of year back home and it is weird not celebrating very much. However there is always next year!! I’m going to focus on what I have now and celebrate the things that I am doing because I am extremely lucky to have this opportunity!!
This next weekend I am planning to go hike Snowdonia with one of my friends and then there is a food fair later in the day!!! Yes I said FOOD FAIR!!! I seriously can’t wait! I think that I am going to stay the night at Nia’s house that night and then come back on Sunday.
Stay tuned for more Wales Tales!
Cheers!
