Personally I chose not to go. I didn´t like the idea of the cruelty and violence towards the bulls, and I felt like I didn´t need to go to a bullfight to experience Spain. What I found a little surprising is that many people from this area are opposed to the bullfights as well. None of the members of my host family like the idea.
But some people definitely enjoy the extreme show of testosterone, the culture, and the excitement. My roommate, for example, went to both bullfights and enjoyed them.
I have a picture from a new Spanish teacher here named Loira.
In other exciting news, more opportunities for community service have started to come up =) Definitely more news on that front later.
¡Adiós!
