San Pedro, Guatemala, 29/1-1/2-2007

These days I have been studying spanish. I can not say that my spanish are very good, but it is way better than for a couple weeks ago.The study has been pritty though with lots of homework, but now I have gotten most of the important grammer and can talk in the present, past and future.

This week I have stayed at Estelas place. I have gotten enormous attention of her children, Clarita, Chosita and Nashly. I think it was becourse I brought some presents the day I arrived. Nothing big, just some books for drawing, pencils, colors and stuff.

I have worked a bit in Estelas garden with moving and stabeling wood when not studying. One day five children helped me out. When we finished I took the children over to the store and bought them ice cream. This naturally other children observed, so I ended up with buying ice cream to most of the children in the street. Ice cream here does not cost much, so I am certain it was a good investment.

I have continued teaching the children in San Pedros school maths this week also. I think it have been an ok experience for the children, even dough it have been some lack of communication.

Today we wisited some of the children in the project. It was a nice experience. The children in the project are from very poor families, and without the project, the children would not have gotten any school education.
