Introducción

Hello world.

I'm Taka, an international student from Japan who go to a university in the U.S.
The main focus of this blog is going to be about my experience in Bilbao, Spain during summer 2011.
I will be staying in Connecticut and Bilbao for a month each to study Spanish this summer.
The whole reason why I started this blog is because the branch of my university that overlooks student's international opportunity encouraged me to keep a journal during the stay. The interesting thing is that they said it's better to start now, because it'll be interesting to look back in the future what I was thinking before the trip. Very helpful tip I guess, because I easily put off things, especially those that I don't want to tackle right away. And we're talking about writing here. I mean, given how much I procrastinate before writing my paper, it's pretty obvious this tip is going to help me a lot.
Anyway, I'll try to update this blog everyday at least during the program.

Wish me luck.
