Yes the Swiss lady learns faster than I, I won´t reveal the fact she is 60, but rather emphasise the fact she speaks 4 other languages. So now I´m getting private lessons, for 3 hours each morning. It´s great because my teacher Carla, stops to chat and asks me about England, all in Spanish of course. That is how the school works, even a beginner will only ever hear Spanigh from their teacher. But I guess it works as we´ve had some interesting conversations.
I got a taxi this afternoon out to one of the local Malls, to possibly buy a few t-shirts as they are so cheap here. The driver complimented my Spanigh (he was just being nice, its really not that good), he´s been learning English for the past 2 months. But generally speaking no one speaks English.
Anyway I think this is all great`preparation for South America. Carla is going to taylor my classes so I can learn what will be important for my travels. So far so good.
I believe some people are having trouble reading the blog, or maybe logging in to comment? I will change the settings so you can comment without a google id. But right now I can´t figure out how, as blogger has converted to Spanish. But as soon as I can I will do that.
