I spent today watching football at The Corner Bar&Grill. It was packed w/ only X-pats, mostly middle-aged dudes; An island of ball-scratching hi-five'ing football fans smashed into their respective jerseys.
I loved it.
Peter (other teacher from Chicago) & I pretty much BS'd the day away w/ cheap food & ice cream
we hung out w/ "Hannah-Montana" for a bit <two very young girl teachers from US that are joined at the [naive] hip..i had to nickname them) & taught them what a french press was.
all up, a good day.
Glad it was a good day - sounds like there are more and more of them in your future. It's amazing how important speaking and hearing your own language is. It's not where you are, but who you are with. Though I bet there are some beautiful Peruvian's out there that would bear hanging with ;-)
