My time in Madrid over the past two weeks has not only challenged me to understand more about the Spanish language than I ever have before, but it has allowed me to appreciate many important aspects of Spanish culture and tradition.<\/p>\n<p>My favorite cultural activity thus far has been the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u Stadium. I started playing soccer when I was six years old and ever since then I have loved the game. While I have been at other soccer stadiums before, I\u2019ve never enjoyed one as much as the Real Madrid Stadium. When we first arrived at the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u Stadium, I was unsure what to expect. As we continued our tour my experience only got better, as I realized how unique the stadium was. Although I really enjoyed walking through the stands and sitting on the bench, my favorite part was learning about the club\u2019s history and the experiences of certain players over the years. My time spent visiting the stadium not only made me want to attend a professional soccer game in the near future, but it gave me the motivation to play soccer and do what I love again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15051 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-1-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-1.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15052 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15053 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-3-300x116.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"116\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-3-300x116.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-3-768x297.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/RM-3-1024x396.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rollins College has given me the opportunity to be a part of a wonderful study abroad program known as Verano Espa\u00f1ol.
