Well now I am putting myself on the other side, and hosting people here on my couch! In January (the day after I got back from my 3 week trip actually, haha) I hosted this young man from New York, a music student solo-traveling around Europe. He was fun and a great first hosting experience. I took him out to tapas with my friends, showed him a good Granada time.
Now I am hosting a man from New Zealand, Daniel the kiwi! Unfortunately as you have read I am super busy and so don't have time to show him around or anything, but he is crashing here for two nights. I talked with him for a few hours when he arrived last night (instead of studying..) and he is a very interesting guy. He has been traveling around the world and living in different countries for the past 8 years. He has had many insane worldy experiences and stories to tell. His current project and passion is designing and building the "solarflower", a device made of regular household materials and junk that works as a solar panel and makes energy. He explained, in way too full of detail for my non-scientifical brain, how it works and his design strategies and successes and failures. Very interesting and complex. He carries it around with him in in pieces in a small duffel, and so he let me see some of the pieces. Crazy!
Anyway, it is way fun to host people from all over who have had these amazing experiences!
ok, off to my toefl class. ahh! bye!
