Alright, well The tentative date has been set to leaving the first week of August, and the first activity I’m gonna aim for when arriving in Guatemala is enrolling in a Spanish language school.

Hola Amigo’s, Yo quero Taco Bell!

Yeah, that’s roughly the extent of my current Spanish vocabulary, thus my need for a Spanish language school. (Okay, it’s slightly better than that, but I’d be in real trouble if I got dropped in the middle of little Havana and needed to find anything other than a library or a bathroom right now!)

Most of the Spanish Language Schools that come well recommended, seem to be about $200 per week (including room and board with a local family) Which seems reasonable to me, but it’s yet another expense I need to raise funds for before this trip!

More on the complications with the date later in the week!
