For Pictures

From now on, I will use Photobucket for most of the pictures and videos that I plan to share while I'm abroad. Go to www.photobucket.com and search for me (n3ruda) to view my album. I'll try to label the pictures and keep things organized for you. There are a few test photos and a test video up currently. Of course I'll let you know when I post some new ones.

Kisses.

some pictures



These are test pictures, really, to see how easy it is to post pics on this site. I may rely on another site in the future. I'll keep you all posted.

They're from our honeymoon two years ago in Mexico (yes, the country).

Intro to my situation

I just graduated from Truman State University with my BA in Spanish and my MA in Education. Can you tell what I want to be when I grow up? My husband Greg talked me into moving to Spain for a year beginning September 18th; not having kids yet makes it easier. We are going to teach English in Almería, which is a little town situated beween a mountain range and the Mediterranean Sea. A lot of Europeans spend their vacations there because of the beautiful beaches, and it doesn't get cold all year round. There is a National Park, a handful of caves, and even a ferry from our town that goes to Melilla (in Morocco), Africa!

We will teach for 12 hours per week and just travel around Europe the rest of the time. Two good friends from college are doing the same program in France next year, so we will have some people to visit and see the wonders of the continent with. My brother is in China, so perhaps we'll go visit him as well.

Check back whenever to see what we're up to! I'm sure there will be plenty of pictures. Additionally, I am not good at keeping up with doing things in a consistent way, especially in a technological medium, so if you ever want to chat just leave me a message or send me an email. But I'ma try to get on every once in a while. Kisses to everyone.
