#thingsIdo

My host father has revealed to me that he likes "za nueva jork jankees".

You sir, have been approved.

Things I don't do here:

1. Snack - three meals a day only, with a cup of coffee and lot of water in between.
2. Shower at night - it's unusual for people to shower at night here, therefore I do not.
3. Speak English - obviously.
4. Walk the streets in confidence - I've only got lost once, and holy hell is this area sketchtastic. Overall I feel safe when I take a walk, but boy do I get some looks being a gringo in the ghetto.
5. Shave - why the hell not.. new country, new face.

Things I do do here:

1. Laugh at the fact I just wrote "do do".
2. Keep a flashlight next to my bed - geckos, mosquitoes, spiders and feral friggen cats are all up and down this area. Yeah, I wouldn't blame me either.
3. Follow soccer/watch TV shows more than ever. My latest kick: Modern Family
4. Carry a Spanish-English dictionary with me at all times, even at dinner.
5. Take a nap when it rains.

And now you know.
