Well, as my loyal readers know, I am currently working on an application for a scholarship which would allow me to go to Spain and teach English for one year.

Things in Spain go slow… about as slow as this snail. As I mentioned in my first post, I’m currently getting ready to apply for a scholarship from the Spanish Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia to go back to Spain and teach English.
