Today was our last day in Portugal so our last chance to use our favourite Portages word Fucker Knife being Australian we had been thinking that we would use it in the crocodile Dundee style thats not a fucker this is a fucker but sadly we did not even get to ask for a fucker at bfast Oh well mayb http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Spain/Castile-Leon/Soria/blog-467985.html I think Ive finally figured out why I prefer small towns to cities. When we were in London I saw more foreigners than locals for obvious reasons... middle of the summer tourist attractions. It confuses me. I dont know whats what.

Ive been talking with Spaniards all week so much so that my voice is starting to go. In the mornings we are assigned to 1 Spaniard each hour for 3 sessions of 1to1 conversation. Then we have discussion groups for an hour. We can talk about anything we want to except for American Politics which I hate talking about anyway http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Spain/Castile-Leon/Soria/blog-280311.html Well we are currently in spain and disaster it rained all day yesterday. Have met the people who we will spend the week with and they seem like an interesting bunch but will let you know how we get along. I still think that anyone who wants to learn to speak Monaghanese must be a really good sort.SeppyPS Its my bday tomorrow and there is no mobile reception here its in the sticks http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Spain/Castile-Leon/Soria/blog-279552.html Pueblo Ingles literally means English Village. Its a 1week English immersion village for Spanish people so they can practice their English with native English speakers without having to travel to Enlgand or North America. I applied as a volunteer through their website at www.puebloingles.com. This week there are 18 Spaniards and 18 Anglos from USA Canada Ireland and England.
