Let's Chew the Fat

It's us, Lauren and Kristýna. We are international students studying in Madrid and we met on our first day of university. After two weeks of knowing each other and countless podcast-worthy conversations (obviously) we decided to start recording. We want to document our experience living abroad, facing the challenges of being a university student and the roller coaster that is life in your 20s. We hope these weekly episodes offer support, comfort or distraction to you. Music, emotions, books, culture shocks, studying, stress, insecurities, loneliness, independence – we cover it all.

#70 Starting our 3rd year of uni = another semester outlook!

We can honestly say, that this has been the easiest transition from being back in our home countries to coming back to Madrid for university yet. Which is a huge success! Of course, goodbyes are always difficult, but the days before leaving now contain less crying and settling back into life in Madrid is so much easier and happens way faster. It took us a while to get to this point, but we're so thankful. (And hopefully it only gets better from here on.)

For this episode's main topic, we do another semester outlook. It's a tradition at this point! We're starting our first semester of our third year of our Journalism degree (which is insane!) and want to take a look at our classes and talk about our first impressions and expectations. We definitely have a very interesting mix of classes this time around: from Feature Writing, to Investigative Reporting, to Multimedia Communication, ... We can't wait to listen back to this episode in a couple of months and realise that we were wrong about everything and had no idea about what was ahead of us.

And of course, we end this episode with our bookclub: Lauren's has finally almost finished all of the books she started reading in May (how impressive!) and Kristyna is still working her way through a really long Margaret Atwood book. Additionally, Lauren has a couple of documentary recommendations: 'One Child Nation' and 'Generation Wealth'. And Kristyna's trying her best to keep up with all the new shows that are currently coming out. And, obviously, we share our songs of the week. (Well Lauren actually decided to change the rules and mention two full albums...)

We're really excited to be back and hope you enjoy this episode.

With love,

L&K
