Woops...still in the jungle!

Hello!

I am still loving jungle life! Since my last blog I have been to Banos which is a really beautiful little town about 3 hours from us which was great. We had a big night out which was so nice after 2 weeks in the jungle! It was great to see another area and nice to relax in the hot springs. This week of teaching has been great. I love teaching the children, they are so enthusiastic! Although it can be a little frustrating as they tend to forget alot! But it is great trying to find ways to get them to learn and enjoy English. They had an exam this week which seemed a little harsh seeing as they are only little but they get examined in every subject so we had to do the same. They did alright although there is definitely room for improvement! They have a week left of school and we are taking both schools on a school trip which should be fun then they are free for the summer. We run a summer school at three of the schools to give the kids something to do otherwise they have 2 months of doing nothing. We are trying to come up with as many games and activities as we can for the summer school which should be so much fun.

We painted our rooms this week which was fun and I did some jugle plumbing! Had to climb up water falls and through pipes with a new water pipe for our new shower which was exciting! It was pouring with rain so it felt like an adventure! We found an amazing river right near our house in the jungle so we went swimming which was amazing. The jungle is so beautiful, I love being here!

So all is well, I will update this when I can. Take care everyone! xxxx
