Today was a sad day though I didn’t realize it until I uploaded my last article for Le CITY Deluxe. Kusama Showcase Article. It was ironic that the article was for an event in America, in New York specifically, which was the last place I was before I came to Spain.
In the last hour or so of my time at my internship, my supervisor/boss completed my final evaluation for UA and handed me a copy of the latest Russian Deluxe magazine. At first I just thought she was showing me the new cover but then she told me that I had articles in it and the magazine was mine keep. I couldn’t believe it! Not only one, but three times did I find articles with my name beside them as the author. I was emphatic to say the least. I absolutely loved my experience at my first internship and wish I could continue to intern there, but sadly, as with most good things, they come to an end. My boss told me to expect another package in August or September with another magazine in which I will have been printed. I can’t describe how happy I am about being published internationally! Here is a link to the web version of the Russian print magazine for those who are interested: Russian Deluxe Web Version.
After work, I treated myself to a nice three course 11 euro lunch at a restaurant I had been passing daily after work each day. The restaurant had a special vegetarian menu which was perfect and had a large variety to choose from. I had a hummus and guacamole dip with nachos, a pizza and an incredibly, mouthwatering slice of chocolate cake with cherry sauce (loved the sauce!) for dessert. It was a good self treat to celebrate completing my first internship.
Instead of just walking to the metro and going home, I decided to wander around
and perhaps do a little shopping. I went down several streets and found a few shops where I got a couple of things for friends and family. I think I am about done with my souvenir shopping though I think I will go somewhere else once more to make sure I covered everyone at home.
After shopping, I went back to my home stay and relaxed for a few hours before having dinner and going to bed.
I have two more days left in Spain – Unbelievable!
