I am now 6 months now and have received a few days ago my flight back to Germany Date: 9 August 2011
Since Christmas is the following happened: We had our volunteers' midterm camp "where we look at the remaining time with the previous six months had to reminisce. It was fun to spend another 5 days with all the volunteers together. Only I'm there, unfortunately lost one of my juggling balls.
The weekend after that I spent a couple of other volunteers at the volcano crater Quilotoa where we were very lucky with the weather! The best the last 2 months as the locals told us. We are there circles on a 5 1 / 2 hour hike to the crater lake.
The group in Quilotoa was |

In my work I am now well integrated into the teacher team.
Recently I had a great success, I managed a boy to bring a book to read! This is unfortunately a rarity among children, especially if they are street children. I had read to the group of guys who live in the moment in the Caleta the first chapter of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (of course with an appropriate voice for each character which amused my very Italian staff has). After a while, but after that has really grabbed the book and a further read. Meanwhile, he has only two chapters are missing then he is through, and every morning he asks me if I'm always excited for the book.
I'm especially happy about it because I started exactly in the same way and with the same book to read independently.
In my school, I will soon (with the "soon" since early January, extends far) English classes start in the 8th 9 and 10 to give the school year because the current teacher then goes on maternity leave. This is a big challenge, because the students are not very disciplined.
This weekend I'm working at my days off for my vacation to earn in the Galapagos. I am 27 April to 4 Mai Travel there - Yay! Today
on Sunday we were with the children of Caleta in the zoo:
