Well Spanish classes are now finished. Graduated from what is probably equivalent to Gr. 3 or 4 Spanish. But whatevs...I graduated man! Unfortunately my work hasn´t started yet so I´m kind of just passing the time, reading and practicing Spanish. I´m supposed to be going on Friday at 10am to create my work schedule. It would be great to start work on Tuesday, seeing as almost everyone else I know has already begun.

We´re hoping to do another little day trip this weekend. Maybe to Matagalpa or Ocotal or Somoto, just to pass the time and see some more of Nicaragua. I feel guilty sometimes that at the moment all I really want to do is travel but I think that its because I haven´t started work yet and therefore only have travelling to look forward to.

My house has certainly become an international place. We have a guy here from York, England, a woman from Panama City, Panama, another woman doing her Masters Thesis from France and then me, Jess and Benny from Canada. It´s fantastic meeting all these people and hearing about all the travelling and experiences they´ve had. It´s helpful too because it lets me find out what works and what doesn´t, what organizations to use, etc. John, from England, taught English in Japan for 2 years through JET which I considered possibly doing after University. You get a great experience and can make some good money (help with those student debts). Natacha, from Panama, backpacked throughout Europe for 2 months and told me about all the places she went, what she liked, etc. Makes me want to just jump on a plane right now!! Anyways, meeting these individuals is great. International friends.

Otherwise, not much going on here. It´s hot, as per usual, and we had a terrible rain storm the other day. Rained for almost 12 hours. It was insane. Anyways, until later my friends!! Thanks for reading :)
