black and white impressions of my new home












Above I'm standing beside the Rectorado Campus, part of the University of Sevilla, which used to be the old tobacco factory, famed by the opera Carmen.

In the suburb of Triana you can buy tile and ceramic plates.

Churros are a donut type spiral that you eat dipped in thick, hot chocolate. The cathedral is the 3rd largest in all of Europe, and it's main tower, the Giralda, was once the site of a mosque.
Children are all dressed up by their parents, more so than I've seen in the States or Germany.The Plaza de Toros (bullfighting ring) is a well-known sight downtown where some of the horse-drawn carriages go by.
