hola amigos,

Just letting you know where I am and putting out some happy new year to ya!! 

I am spending the next 3 months in San Salvador, El Salvador.  I have been staying with a Salvadorian family here and there chill and treating me really well.  I now am moving into an apartment with other salvadorians my age!!  ya baby!!

I am here volunteering to teach english and learn about the political history of el salvador.

I have also started to teach in a for profit english school to get a little plata tu sabes!

Things I like about el salvador:

• the beaches are sweet and the waves are good

• the city has a lot of cute salvadorian ladies, ah yes...

• the city is pretty close to some rad volcanos which hopefully I will hike some of em´´

• Pupusas are really good and there only a quarta!

• and theres some pretty cool bars circa mi vecino

Things I don´t like:

• you only get a 3 month visa to see el salvador, honduras, nicarauga, guatamala

• its one of the most expensive spots in central america next to Costa Rica

• super americanized doesn´t really feel like a latin city, theres malls, damn!!. Tons of american companies

• they use the american dollar

• and of course its muy peligroso!! 

que te vaya bien!!!
