Strange reality

I finshed the last day of my 3 day Leadership training course today. Surprisingly I enjoyed it!! I walked away today at the end of it and yet again found myself amazed that I am emmersed in a Spanish speaking world, spending my days in Spanish more than English. Me!! I really enjoy it an can now communicate freely, the thing that makes me realise I can understand well is that I understand jokes...well some of them!

So, as much as I sometimes find it strange that I live in this surreal world of Spanish, it's my world!
I was sat on the sofa today and looked at my family photos that are in frames around my room. This is a far cry from England. I miss everyone very much. But is also doesnt feel real! In my garden I go and check how my newly planted banana trees are doing and to see if the mangoes are ready yet! Really...

So glad that your knowledge of the language means that you are so well integrated into life there. Take care, Barbara xx
