The most important message that I want parents to know is that we witnessed a safe, nonviolent, and passionate strike in the city of Valladolid. We know that there were no cases of violence in the city and as a result all our kids are safe. I even spotted some of them in the plaza with their host families experiencing this event.
The goal of this blog is to share our experience in Spain with the world. Pictures, anecdotes, videos and much more will portray the life changing endeavors, the people we meet, the food we eat, the culture we share, and the ongoing process of becoming "citizens of the world". We hope that this blog keeps you entertained.

La Huelga - The Strike
Yesterday March 29th, the entire country went on strike in protest of a labor law that is being past Congress. Mrs. Graham and I went out to the streets and walked next to the people that were protesting to experience and better understand the political and social situation around this issue. It´s a complex one and explaining it here would only create more confusion amongst my readers.
