New Casa Y Stuff

front of house
this week has been different.  I started working at the school and have spent most of my time with 2-5 year olds.  They are so much better behaved than American kids.  not to mention how cute the brown kids are!  ;)  Today I started working in the office, reorganizing and moving things.  Next week is Holy Week so there is no school. and sadly no alcohol sales all over town.  but don't worry, I'm stocking up! 

I started a painting at Coco's that I need to finish and need to bring my painting stuff into town.  

The week after I will be working M, W& F in the office and T & Th at night in the English classes for adults.  that will be a bit better for me!

Here are pictures of the new house.  It's actually really nice compared to most things in town, which makes me pretty uncomfortable.  Like more of a target for theft etc.  But I need to find something and this just fell into place.  the entire house is $400 and am currently sharing with one other person.  In may there will be 3 of us and I will move to a less nice room, for less money.

  3. Nice digs!!! I think your could have a large fiesta over Holy week with your stocked up booze... or is that in really bad taste. I'm glad your teaching gig fell into place, it sounds like a great opportunity and a good place to meet more new people for more new adventures! Nice grammar, maybe I should go back to school....

  6. Your house reminds me of SA in so many ways! Stay safe, don't drink around the kiddos, hope a new sense of "routine" gives you some peace and a few friends bring you happiness and adventure!
