What a weekend!

I'll have to make this blog a quick one because Spain is playing for the second time in the World Cup in exactly one hour. My new colleagues at my internship have me on the email pool and have been inviting me to do things with them which is really exciting. So I'm about to head over to one of their houses to watch the game! Last Friday, one woman invited me to her house to spend the day at the pool. I kindly had to decline the invitation because all the Intrax interns from Barcelona and Madrid went to Valencia (rough life, eh?) The weekend was beautiful and I'm fairly certain I came back a few shades darker, a few pounds heavier, and content in knowing I got to know a few of my fellow interns a little better. We exchanged stories over walking in the sunshine and eating ice cream and over a delicious 3 course meal that Jenna, the Barcelona Intrax Program Advisor, arranged.

Here's just a taste of Valencia (I'll be sure to elaborate later):

That's the Valencia train Station in the back (beautiful right!?) From L to R: Ben, myself, my roommate Danielle, and Will (all Madrid interns)

Work couldn't be better. Today I finally met my "big boss" who had been with clients in London last week when I started. He is from France and speaks at least 3 languages fluently, like much of the office. 

Later tonight I'll hopefully have good news (Spain won!!) and go into some detail about my job- because I love it so far!

Hasta pronto....
