What am I doing?

14 July 2007

I've been in Central America for over four months. What have I been up to lately?

I am again taking formal Spanish classes, five days a week, and in four weeks I will take both a written and oral exam to receive credit from the Rural University of Guatemala.

In the afternoons, I've been volunteering at Camino Seguro. On Mondays I teach computer classes. The other days I help the children with their schoolwork and/or other activities such as English language acquisition, horticulture, playing soccer, playing on the swingset, Legos, etc. Some of the children's behavior issues remind me of jobs I had many years ago.

I have been enjoying volunteering at the little library in the town of San Juan del Obispo every Saturday afternoon.

I'm considering the possibility of having the experience of living in a different village/town other than Ciudad Vieja in Guatemala.

Blessings and peace to you all,
William
