Summer 2012 keeps getting better and better!!

On a bit of whim, I applied for an English teaching/immersion session in the North of Spain. And low and behold, I got it!
Look at that VIEW
It's a week-long stay (June 29th to July 6th) at the Hotel Spa Villalba Lugo Attica in Galicia where I'll be working with native Spanish-speaking teachers on their English. As a native English-speaker myself, I'll get free accommodation, free, plentiful meals, and all I have to do is speak English the entire time.
ummm, yes please!
 And oh my word! I googled the venue I'll be staying at...it's a SPA!! And from the pictures, it's one of those super amazing, luxurious spas where people go to connect with their inner zen, total peace and relaxation. Here's the link to the spa: Villalba Lugo Attica

 I applied online earlier this week, and after a couple email exchanges, I'm set to arrive in Galicia the night of the 29th (after my final TEFL class). I've already booked a cheap flight out of Madrid, and I'm just going to grab a taxi from the airport in Galicia to the spa. It all happened so fast! But I'm so excited!!
i could sleep for daysss in here
So after an incredible week at a spa in Northern Spain, my dad's going to meet me in Galicia and from there we're planning a trip through Germany, focusing on Bavaria (and multiple beer tasting sessions), southern France (lavender fields and a possible outing to Monaco) and ITALY. We're gonna ride the canals in Venice, visit the Colosseum in Rome, stuff our faces with pasta and gelato, and sip bottle after bottle of wine in Tuscany. Ultimate father-daughter European vacation, here I come. WIsh me luck!!
