Let me first say that I have always loved traveling. But never did I imagine that I would one day spend five and a half months in a country where I would not know the language. But when you can complete an internship requirement for your major while getting to experience a new culture in a warmer climate than what you are used to, who wouldn't jump on the chance?
For those of you that do not know me, my name is Jordan and like it said in the author section, I am a sophomore at Purdue University studying hospitality and tourism management with a minor in organization and leadership supervision. I will be studying this next semester at the Universitat de les Illes Balears which is situated in the Balearics of Spain on an island called Mallorca. My future aspiration is to one day work in a big brand hotel company as a general manager. My hope is that through this blog, my friends and family will be able to follow my travel adventures as well as be able to share in a small part of my journey.
Personally I hope that through this internship and studying abroad experience, I will have a better idea on what I want my future career path to be. My time spent abroad will make my decision easier if I am to continue on my path of becoming a hotel general manager or to fall in love with another area of the hospitality industry.
So ¡Empieza la aventura! (Let the adventure begin!)
