Spanish (castellano), Galician (galego) and English (mostly taught in schools that are pluralingual, meaning they use English in some of their lessons) are all spoken here.
In Spain, they use euros, which is the common currency used throughout most of Europe. The symbol for the euro is "€". One euro is about $1.15.
A bottle of water costs between €0.50 ($0.58) and €1.50 ($1.73), depending on the store you go to and the brand you buy.
This week, the best meal I had was a poke bowl. A poke bowl is a Hawaiian-style bowl filled with raw fish, vegetables, rice and yummy sauces. My favorite food in the whole world is salmon sushi, and even though salmon is not native to Galicia, the fish still is very fresh because we live on the ocean!
This week, I have been listening to The Beatles all the time. The Beatles are a popular British band from the 1960s, and I went to a restaurant that was playing a bunch of my favorite Beatles songs from my childhood. This prompted me to revisit one of my favorite bands from when I was younger this week.
