The best meal that I had this week was at an organic fast food restaurant. I ordered a beef wrap that was made with only organic ingredients. It is very common to find vegan or organic places to eat in Vigo. The restaurant was named kastami'S, and it was recommended by a local. I have met several international people who are vegetarian or vegan, and this was a place that everyone could feel comfortable. I was most impressed that the tortilla was made out of chickpeas. I couldn't help but notice that my wrap was smaller than I was accustomed to and that my wrap didn't come with any sides. It was still the best meal this week because it tasted so good!
I expected to hear more Spanish music than I actually did this week. Every time I ate out, the music was in English. Among the most common American artists that are played here are Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Kanye West, and Cardi B. I even heard some Jason Derulo. I was quite surprised by this. I have yet to go to a place that plays music in Spanish!
The university hosted many welcoming events this week. I most enjoyed an event called Speed Meeting. It is based on the idea of speed dating where you move around a room meeting new people, but only talking to them for a short amount of time. It was located at a café, and I got to order a café con leche (coffee with milk). I met people from Germany, Poland, Mexico, Colombia, Italy and Spain.
