“But truly God has
listened, he has given heed to the words of my prayer. Blessed be God, because he has not
rejected my prayer or removed his steadfast love from me.”

Psalm 66: 19-20
I spent a month in Monteverde living with a host family as
part of my Spanish class. This was
more of a challenge than anything else, as at that point I still spoke very
little Spanish, and my family didn’t speak any English. It made for some interesting
communication! I have since become
more confident in my Spanish (though I’m sure my grammar is just as terrible)
and am able to converse a little more fluently.

Our final activity for Spanish class was a presentation for
our host families. My class
(Elementary Spanish 1) sang
Vivir me Vida,
currently a popular song in Costa Rica.
People clapped and sang along.
Afterwards I told my family I was ready for the next Karaoke night. They liked to sing a lot.
