To start off talking about classes, I like how my classes here are set up. I have class from 9 to 1 and then a few hours of homework and them I have nights to myself to explore the city. I love the way that everything has been working out with school thus far. Also my grammar and conversation professors are very nice and helpful and my conversation professor has been showing me different ways and ideas to teach Spanish in the United States. It has been very helpful for me. School is going great so far and I really like my other university.
As well as classes, I have been exploring the city a little bit with the other international students from the university. We went to a restaurant called Expresame and to another called El Gordo Steak. In both restaurants, we got really good service and a lot of food for not a lot of money. There are a lot of good restaurants on the street that is in front of my house so I have been exploring that as well. As well as this, I went to the Guadalajara Centro for the second time, but this time I went to the markets. I bought some purses (one for me and some for other people), a small change purse (coin pesos really add up), a paper birds that flys and makes noise by itself when you wind it up (my inner child), and some key chains and some other things for my family and friends. I am still looking for cool little things like post cards to bring to everyone so they can have a little piece of Mexico as well. The markets that I have seen here are great and I still can't get over all of the beauty that this city has. One last major thing that I have done this weekend was explore the nightlife of Guadalajara with a few of my friends. While we were walking through the city we happened to come upon some dancing. Some of the dancing was traditional and the people had traditional clothing from here. That was cool to see too. I have some pictures and links to videos. They are below.
Thank you for reading and enjoy the rest of your weeks.
