The first week to 10 days I’m in Spain I’ll be traveling around the country and when my actual studies start, I’ll be staying with a host family. I’m semi nervous about the family and how they will react to having a blind student in there home, but I can only hope it all goes well. I specifically put on my family placement form I am blind so I think everything should be ok.
