Hello!
I made it safely to Costa Rica! Internet is scarce so my posts may be intermittent.
Costa Rica is beautiful, obviously! I have included a picture of my neighborhood that I took as I was walking to school this morning.
My host family is wonderful, Maria Isabel, the Mama tica (Costa Rican Mother) as she called is great. She is very hospitable and a great cook. I have been enjoying breakfasts of "gallo pinto" or black beans and rice with sweet chili peppers and onion with eggs and tortillas, fresh fruit and kick ass Costa Rican coffee.
My Spanish language classes are going well so far. I could tell a difference in the first two days as I dusted off those brain cobwebs.
Off to mi classe ahora! Hasta luego!
Hola Chica! It's great to hear that you are happily settling in to your home for the next several weeks.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are learning how to say all the important things in Spanish - things like "Can I kitty pet your cat?", "I need a pug to cuddle", and "I hate hangovers". I would like to learn these phrases when I see you next. :)
I hope your Thursday is amazing! I am thinking of you here in Seattle while I am stuck on a conference call. (that I am obviously paying attention to....ahem)
