Well I am now finishing my last day in Queretaro, Mexico and I a little sad to leave. While I am very excited to be home with my family and friends, it is sad to leave such wonderful people that I have meet here, behind. In looking back to my Pre-departure post, I was completely wrong. There are very tall buildings, many cars, and the city is very clean. There was not a time while being in Queretaro did I feel unsafe. I love this city and all the people in it. Queretaro will forever be my home away from home. Having been both in Spain and Mexico, I was trying to look for similarities, however, there are none that I have seen. Even though both are places that speak Spanish, the only other similarity is the way in which History is preserved for the culture.

You make a perceptive observation–just because a country has the same language as another doesn’t necessarily mean the cultures are the same. You have learned much in your time abroad. Michele
