What Will Have Value In 200 Years?

Karsten in Guatemala, Part II




love Los Patojos-interested, there are now

nearly one and a half weeks since the last note passed and they were very eventful. Let me start with my first German lesson in English: Without much preparation as I was almost Replacement of an age-well-mixed, German interest group to explain the time. This included not only a departure from the current time in Thuringia statement like "it's quarter to three," but also the neglect of the 24h rhythm of time '. The latter explanation would have led to unnecessary confusion, but which were themselves not to misjudge the amateur German teachers. For while he to some degree-level appropriate words to convey, that was startled by the complexity of the German time expression. While in the English for "it is / we have 5 (minutes) after half-three" simple "son las 3 menos 25" says, or about "It is 3 (Clock) less 25 minutes", you have to specify the Germans only the difference after the half hour, so the 5 and then is only half the third .. I think somehow they have understood it. Next week comes the final confirmation! Furthermore, there was a "cultural tarde", or a cultural afternoon at the adoption of a Voluntaria. Hard to believe, but controlled within 4 days, so more than 10 patojos juggling 3-4 balls. Slowly it dawns on me what it means when Juan Pablo, the main supporter of Los Patojos says that sleeping in the children an enormous potential! On Friday we were on a big football Erdplatz . Play As announced, so was the game with me, there were three fight at "adult" stamped on all patojos of great intensity, so that a sweaty not only because of the high humidity kicking ball ended in a draw. I think, to the satisfaction of all. Also, I've decided the purpose of closer cooperation for a group that calls itself "Rebeldes" on German well: the adolescent. The handling is quite easy, being me, my lack of English language skills make it difficult to gain direct access to the youth something else. But there is still a language other than words, or? Anyway, I've been a little activity into Eye in focus. The rebel groups are to imagine what they good at their home like and what not. About the most successful presentation is to be polled and a small reward to give additional incentives to the extent that theory ... There is so much to tell, of course, not always cheerful. Among other things you get here with all the drama in front of your eyes, what can it mean if simply no money or specialist in the treatment of disease is present. Since Germany is the basic security of its state-despite some injustices really there!

Hasta pronto - soon!
