Guatemala

Thank God tomorrow is my last day of Spanish School! I’m so fed up with it. I know I’ve got another week in Honduras, but I’m just hoping I’ll have someone who can speak more English. Today was pretty rubbish for the most part, but got better by the late […]

Still waking up early. :-(. Finished The Da Vinci Code while still in bed. Met Dom, Doreen and the other volunteers at the coffee shop (which seems to be the meeting point for everything!). A few of us went for brunch in a cafe on the other side of town. […]

It was my last day in the luxury of the hotel today, so I made the most of the hot shower and chilling out. Dom and Doreen came to get me at 10am and took me to my homestay, where I’ll be until next Sunday. It’s with the same family […]
