Things I've learned

Day #5. Two days ago we arrived at Novo Sancti Petri where the family owns their second home. The whole town is pretty much a giant resort with a giant golf course going throughout the whole town. I have my own room and bathroom. It great. But not gonna lie im pretty homesick. And theres no Wifi! The only way i can get wifi is to go over to the pool, so currently that is what I am doing, sitting at the pool.

Things I have learned so far. 

-Salad is communal. They literally just place a giant salad bowl in the middle of the table and everyone reaches their fork in and grabs some! It was so strange!

-Days never end. The day starts at 10 in the morning and because it doesn't get dark until 10:30 here they days don't end till midnight, which is normal for teenagers, but for small kids, it is definitely different. 

-I suck at spanish, most of the time I have no idea what anyone is say. Example 1: I tried to order at a Bar on the beach ( I was by myself because it was my day off) and well... I somehow ended up with a tuna sandwich and tons of dirty looks from the spanish man at the table next to me #americanproblems.
 

<--This is a picture from the bar! Right next to the beach:)











-Monopoly for children=bad. I have no idea what they were fighting over but 15 minutes into a game of monopoly and all the kids were fighting and two of them were crying. 

-I love friends. I definitely miss having friends to talk to about anything. Im pretty lonely not going to lie. Anyone who is interested in being an Au pair be prepared to have tons of you time. The good thing is I like being by myself, the question is how will I feel after two months. 

-Snails don't taste as bad as they look. Yes I ate them.

-The spanish don't eat penut butter or chocolate. My two favorite things... I had to ask them to specifically buy me some or else I would start having withdraws. 

Pretty much everyday we just go to the beach, the pool, we eat, and watch movies(in spanish of course). Its pretty great, although I wonder if they ever get bored. As for my tan, it is coming along nicely! In a little over two months all the freckles I have been geting are going to combine together and when Cali sees me again I'll be black!! 

Alright, See you in a while Crocadile.
