Today, I walked home from school by myself. Thankfully, I didn’t get lost and got home quite easily. I even stopped by a shop and bought some soda… how’s that for getting around without knowing the language!
At 6:45 today, I was supposed to meet someone who was going to take me to his house for a Spanish small group. I took a taxi (It’s kind of scary getting a taxi, when you don’t know how to speak to the driver, or exactly where you should be going) and I got to the place where I think we said we would meet. However, I waited for about half an hour and either he never came, we were at different places, or we just didn’t see each other. Many strange men looked at me and some tried talking to me, but I was told that it’s best to just ignore them, so I did. Finally, I got tired of waiting and I thought about taking a taxi home, but wasn’t sure exactly what directions to give him, so instead I walked to our principal’s house and she kindly drove me home.
