Guat a Week! (Pun Intended)
Greetings from la Antigua, Guatemala! I am writing this from my Spanish school, Ixchel Spanish School. We've only been here a few days, but it's been fun! Our mornings are filled with Spanish class, which is mostly conversation and then some review of past concepts. I am hoping that we move forward to some more … Continue reading Guat a Week!

¿Casi Tica?

Summering in Spain!
So I am currently sitting by myself on a 10th-floor balcony in Mallorca, Spain. It is 9:45pm, and the sun is just about finished setting. The temperature is about perfect, and there is a slight breeze coming off the water. As I was sitting here just enjoying the moment, classical music randomly started playing loudly … Continue reading Summering in Spain!
Doodle-Bug’s Big Day
Hola! Today was a big day for a little car...a car that shall henceforth be called Doodle-Bug! This weekend, some friends and I rented a car and went on a little mini-adventure to Volcán Irazu (Irazu Volcano if that wasn't obvious enough). It's a pretty ginormous volcano located in the province of Cartago, which is … Continue reading Doodle-Bug’s Big Day
