In Spain, most people don't own houses and live in apartments instead. The apartment I'm staying at is surprisingly big. I have my own room. My host mom told us (me and another student in the program) to call her "Mama Pepa". There is Mama Pepa, her daughter and her 11-year-old granddaughter.
Today after dinner, we all went to Mama Pepa's other daughter's apartment upstairs. We spent about an hour talking about men and whatnot. These are all pretty much single, independent women, so they are very well suited to be my family. It was very interesting to see that even across cultures women can come together and bond over a topic such as men. I learned the word "calabrone" or however it's spelled. It means a man who only wants sex and nothing serious. lol. Sounds like every guy. They were incredibly honest and open about their ex husbands. I think they have really incorporated us "American girls" in their lives and have made my experience thus far a pleasant one. I really like my family!
