So I didnt have much luck in keeping my regular blog up to date, but its always a great way to keep up with everyone when i am traveling. (by the way, the ctrl and shift button on this keyboard seem to have a different system... i have not figured out when they are on or off, so ignore the punctuation...i am trying)
arrived in guat city yesterday early morning and took a 4 1/2 hr bus ride to the highlands, where i am staying in xela with a host family while attending the great spanish school celas maya.
although there are quite a few americanos around, ive still learned more espanol en una dia than in cinco anos. turns out you have to use it to eat, get agua pura, find the bookstore, etc.
my camera decided to break. so im weighing the difficulty of explaining what is wrong with it in broken espanol to a camera shop versus just buying a new one. i think i will buy a new one. hopefully then i can share pics with you via blog.
more to come...
