Today we had FIVE hours of Spanish class, and I loved every single minute! They're one on one lessons, and I was able to carry on a conversation (or something resembling that) for the majority of the time! It was awesome! I'm not great at speaking Spanish, but being surrounded by people who are so encouraging makes such a difference. I'm not embarrassed to make a mistake because no one is making fun of me here. The Guatemalan's are impressed that I'm trying to learn and the volunteers and staff are eager for me to learn, so any mistakes that are made are met with smiles and sweet corrections. I hope I'm able to continue learning Spanish when I get home. Mom, Dad you're only allowed to speak to me in Espanol en el futuro!
Me adoro Guatemala!
