I realized I cannot study Spanish in confined spaces. So, today I grabbed my Spanish books and a snack (of course) and headed for the beach to do a little studying. One thing I love about living here is the ability to travel to all kinds of new places using public transportation. With my oversized beach bag in tow, I jumped on a bus and wound up at a new beach just up the coast from where I live. I was able to work on practicing my Spanish, especially when the lifeguard called me out of the ocean to lecture me in Spanish about swimming out too far.
I appreciate having this month or so before classes start to acclimate to my new surroundings. I am feeling settled in and this week am meeting with a Rotary club and a potential NGO that I might volunteer with here.
I always loving hearing from you guys so please feel free to shoot me an email or comment on the blog. :)
