During winter break, I spent 10 days in Spain.  It was my first time in this beautiful country, and I had one of the best vacations of my life.  While I was there I stayed with two families, who were gracious enough to host me during the Christmas and New Years holidays.  I know these families through an organization called CISV.  As a member of an organization called CISV, I have had the opportunity to meet hundreds of amazing adults and children from all over the world.  During this trip, I got to reconnect with some kids and a counselor from a summer camp I attended this past summer.

I hope you enjoy the pictures below:
