SALAMANCA, SPAIN

I am excited to announce that when I return to Spain, I will be attending language school in Salamanca, Spain.  I have visited this city a few times and absolutely love it.

Some fun facts:

• Salamanca was founded in 4th century BC (!!!)
• Salamanca's university (where I may be studying) is known as Spain's answer to Oxford.
• Salamanca's university was founded in 1218 and is the third oldest western university.
• Salamanca is featured in the movie Vantage Point with Dennis Quaid.
• Salamanca was declared a World Heritage Site in 1988 and the European Capital of Culture in 2002.
