Hey there fellow exchange partners! My name is Verenice Hernandez, and as I continue on my journey in these upcoming months, I will be exploring Spain’s culture and language.
I’m from a small town in McHenry, Illinois, and it is a true honor to visit Europe and appreciate its history. I grew excited to learn about different people's upbringing and traditions. I know I will gain great insight into the world around me through empathy, exploration, and appreciation. I’m excited to create articles that inspire, and to read your articles as well! I hope to gain language skills and a better understanding of cultures around me. This digital exchange is so exciting, and I can’t wait to start!
