The past few days... Thursday: So, pretty busy day, meetings etc... over possible jobs (which all come out trumps)...First of which was in a library at the Uni, where they record me reading texts in English for the sake of teaching purposes, exams etc... It was alright, a few hours a week will do me fine! I listened to other recordings, all American accents, then listening back to mine, I really noticed my accent...twen-y, instead of twnety and all that! Its rea...

A general, brief update... Monday - Lazy daysss! Woke up, brought a newspaper...Can you believe they publish Le Monde here (French newspaper), but not any British ones?! I´m aching to know whats going on at home! Then went to school...NOT good! Things haven´t been going so well at the school, unfortunately...It´s very chaotic and things rarely run to plan...I guess it´s a cultural thing for me, but I do prefer it when I know what I´m doing (all my friends h...

UPDATE! Sunday - Loved Sunday! Went horse ridings in the nearby Andes...Yay! The mountains are amazing ... and huge, they tower over the city and can be seen from most places within, and are only a short drive. So I was picked up from a youth hostel* and went into the Andes.

A quick update... Friday - I don´t work Fridays, so I set about to sort a few things and chill around the town for the morning. Again, another nice day. This place only gots 6 days of rain per year! Then, by the afternoon Lucila and I went to the centre of town to sort me out a mobile phone which is now all done! Then straight from there to the cinema club! at the University, organised by representative group here Amigos Del Mundo...Each Friday we get together ...

So, the past few days... STARTED at the school! I tell you, it´s hard work...ah jesus! I do four hours a day, two days of teaching English, and two days assisting teachers in the multiple workshops that the children do. I love it, but every second the kids are like "¿Cómo se dice...en inglés?", which is "How do you say...in english?", every minute of the time I´m there...it is exhausting, as there´s about 300 hundred of them, all deman...
