Umm, so.. err... where's Leon?

Friends, family and acquaintances have all pretty much said the exact same thing  when I've told them about going on exchange. And to be honest with you, I still don't know a great deal about the city I'm going to call home in just a few months.

So for starters, Leon is in north western Spain, about 4 hours from Madrid and 3 hours to cross the border into Portugal.

It has a population of about 150,000 and from just a quick Wiki search, it is evident that Leon has a rich history and some SPECTACULAR architecture!

I've also had a little look at the University's website and Facebook Page. The photos are the campus look fantastic!





 The more I see, the more excited I become. I know it's going to be a challenge but this is also shaping up to be an incredible adventure!

More soon!

Adios, Clare xx
