De Nueva Jersey a España Raquel Satti, es una joven de 20 años procedente de Nueva Jersey. Llegó a Españacon mucha ilusión y entusiasmo, demostrando en todo momento, desde su llegada en Noviembre, su afán por perfeccionar nuestro idioma. Se trata de una más entre la gran cantidad de estudiantes que han tenido la oportunidad de viajar al extranjero por medio de becas, pudiendo ampliar así sus experiencias y conocimientos sobre el país. Afortunadamente hemos tenido la ocasión de conocerla y realizarleuna entrevista sobre su estancia en España: - What brought you to study in Spain? - I wanted to study in Spain because I have some friends that did the same in the past. I knew a spanish family and they have helped me tremendously. - How did you feel the last days before your travel? - I was very nervous completing the final preparations. Moreover, the last week was very emotional as I said goodbyeto my family which I am very close to and I separated from them few times. - What is the thing that most surprised you when you came to Spain? - The most surprising thing when I came to Spain is the lifestyle; many spaniards eat a big lunch in the afternoon and eat dinner very late at night. More people spend time in the streets here in Spain than those in the USA. - Do you have problems with thetimetable and the new habits in this country? - At first I had problems with the timetable, but with the time I've used to it, even I like that... - Have you met someone of your age? What do you think about this? - Yes, I have met many people of my age with whom I had fun speaking Spanish and they speaking English. From here, I get good friends that I keep talking once I return to USA throughsocial networks. - If you hadn't had this opportunity, would you have travelled by yourself? - If I hadn't had this opportunity I hadn't come as soon, because it required many expenses for my parents to pay the travel, but I would have helped by providing some money working during the summer, but I think that I would come after I graduate... - Will you return to Spain in the future? - Of course! Iwill come in the future. I have a lot to see and many places to visit. - Spain is the same as you had described earlier? - Yes, the truth is that it's very similar. The people is very friendly, there is good food... in Spain I feel like in my own house.
