First Blog Post...Like Ever.






Hi y'all! My name is Sela Garcia, and as you may have guessed, I am not a London native. That being said, I am in for a long awaited culture shock as I embark on a six week long adventure starting July 5th.






Texas Christian University





I am 21 years old and am now enjoy the summer before my senior year at Texas Christian University as an English major with a Psychology Minor. 











San Antonio Riverwalk: Christmas Season




I'll throw you a bone by saying that I am from Texas, if the "y'all" did not give it away in the beginning. I was born in Corpus Christi, which for those of you who don't know, is located along the Gulf of Mexico. However, I have lived in San Antonio for the past 14 years, and consider that to be my home. 








San Antonio: Mexican Market




Like most Texans, I enjoy sweet tea, "please and thank you", and Mexican food. (I should mention that I am Mexican...and Spanish).





Billy Bob's Fort Worth, Texas








Although I am extremely excited to call London my home in the coming weeks, I will be missing all the friends and family, who will stay back here in Texas. I'll be swarming their  mailboxes with postcards of all the places I visit, and I am guessing that I will become somewhat of a Skype expert by the time I return. 

I think I am well overdue for adventure, this being the summer before my final year of college, and I'm eager to see what the future holds: new places and faces. 



I hope to see that the stars over London are "Big and Bright" like the ones I'm used to by the end of my six weeks. 


San Antonio Spurs: 2014 NBA Champions


P.S. I should also mention that I am, now and always have been, a Huge Spurs fan. See you in France Tony! xoxo
