Estoy aqui
I am sitting at my desk in my new room in Madrid. How did that happen? The flight was fine- I can do anything now that Ive flown to China. From the airport, I took a taxi to my host mom's apartment downtown. Its the cutest. Its small but quiant and Ikea-esque. perfect. My host mom, Elvira, is very sweet and made me a ginormous lunch- I wish I brought her something better than a Baltimore "I'm Crabby" mug and a USA flag glitter pen in my makeshift gift wrap of an insideout barf bag and some colorful post-its. Georgetown also managed to find the one woman in all of Madrid who doesn't eat meat. double perfect. Were going for a walknow... Adios.

Muy bien! Glad the flight was uneventful. Elvira and her place sound like a great fit! The greeting gift is always tough. As you get to know her, you may find a more "right" thing. We all look forward to a photo of your new abode and town. Hasta lluego.
