CABRILS

oh what a darling little village tucked away in the mountains, just north of barcelona. the church bell rings every hour, everyone buzzes around on their little motos on the narrow streets lined with palm trees, and so far the rich coffee is curing my jet leg.

it will only take you about a day to get here from seattle... just hop on a flight at 8:30 in the morning... and you will be here the next day around 10am!!! two flights, two train rides and last, a short little bus ride...

currently i am shacking up at barbara´s house - the owner of the english school here. i have been enjoying her company. except she already went out of town for the weekend - so i had the place to myself!

i am looking for an apartment... and i think i have found a winner!
it is in vilassar de mar, just down the mountain from cabrils. it is just a few blocks from the beach and train station - score!

i have been spending the past few days orientating myself with this new and exciting place... helping barbara out with her 2 kids (when they were in town), cooking a lot, walking around and getting lost... this always happens to me... but i spent some time at the beach and floated around in the balearic sea - it was heaven!

i start teaching on monday... it looks like i will have 6 different classes, so i have been preparing for that
i also did some painting at the school... i painted and entire wall with chalk board paint and working on another ... we will see how that works

ciao for now
besos
