This is the true story of my adventures in learning Spanish and teaching English in South America.

30 days and counting

5 months down, 1 month to go. On August 2, I'm flying to Lima with my parents and sister, who will have been visiting me that last week that I'm here. And then what? They'll fly back to the States, and I'll head south to Chile, then Argentina, then everywhere else I feel like going until I decide it's time to go home. Or I run out of money. One or both will happen before Christmas, so I'll be home by then.

Then comes the hard part: starting all over again. Luckily, after years of searching for the right job to support me through my impending spinsterhood, I've found it. (I make single look good. I plan on continuing that.) Teaching English is just down right fun. (Have you read my funny sentences?) I make an idiot out of myself on a daily basis, and yes, I do occasionally feel the need to bang my head off the wall, but the payoffs are awesome. If anyone knows of any teaching ESL jobs available in the Atlanta area, please let me know!

Hello Kelli, we live in either Cusco or Antigua for a portion of every year. I was interested in where you teach English. Is it difficult to find positions for teaching there?

Take care! Bruce Swanson

You will be back just in time to go see the GWINNETT Braves as well as the real ones! Yep, they are building a stadium for them and everything.
