My Spanish classmate

Shelagh is my Spanish classmate. She rocks! Looking at this photo you wouldn´t have guess that she is a 62 years old grandmother, travelling in South America for 6 months on her own. She has 3 kids in their 40´s and 8 grand kids. As part of the 6 months trip in South America she is studying Spanish, working with street kids, saving the turtles in Galapagos Islands.

We were the only 2 students in our Spanish class and we constantly made a nuisance of ourselves to our teacher Elizabeth. It was quite fun to have another person around and to learn with someone else. Last night the class organized salsa class and everyone had fun.

I hope to catch up with Shelagh in Quito in a September as our roads will cross once again!
