End of week 4 in Santiago

This week has literally flown by for me. I am still getting 2 1/2 hours 1:1 with my Spanish teacher 5 days a week. By the end of the morning, my brain is really tired, but I am understanding more, speaking more, writing short stories, and reading more all the time.

Next week we will rotate teachers again. I will have the same teacher I had for 2 weeks in 2019. Phil has been studying with her the last two weeks and he will have the teacher I've had for 2 weeks. I will continue to study 1:1 next week and Phil's class will have only him and one other student. We'll be getting out of class at the same time for the first time again in two weeks! Thursday and Friday will be a holiday so we only have 3 more days of class. I think Phil's feeling more confident as well.

We have appointments for haircuts tomorrow and the Easter week parades (called processions) are starting tonight. We hope to watch the one tomorrow afternoon and another on Palm Sunday.

Today we had a really nice lunch out on the town. We ate near the city market. We are looking forward to all the Easter activities.Weiterlesen
