New School, New House, New Car!


Sorry it has been so long since I posted!  Things have been crazy here and I have been very busy.  First, I had to set up my new room and start teaching.  My new school is great and I love teaching Spanish to my new students (even though I still miss my old students!).


I am teaching 7th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade Spanish.  It has taken a lot of work to start all over again at a new school, but I finally feel like I am getting into the swing of things.  

I also had to find a house!  Luckily, I had a friend living down here already to help us look for a place.  She is from Belvidere too and I am so lucky to have her here to show me around!  We have a cute two bedroom house on top of a giant hill with a nice breeze and view of the sea.  We are still trying to unpack everything, but it's getting there.

Not done yet!  I had to find a car to drive as well.  I ended up buying a used Jeep from a friend of a friend.  It has worked out really well and I really like it.  Above, is a picture of my car in our front yard.  


I have also been trying to find my way around the island, but haven't had so much time to spare.  Last weekend I finally went scuba diving here.  It was great!  I saw so many different kinds of fish, rays, turtles, and even a shark!  I can't wait to go again.


I would love to hear how the year is going back in Illinois.  Send me a message anytime, and I will be better about posting again!
