I went to a party last evening at my friend’s flat in another neighborhood a few miles down the road.
They were all speaking Spanish at the table and I just listened and tried to piece it all together.
The difficult section for myself and others with Spanish is when they speak too fast for my brain to keep up. I also need to learn more vocabulary words as I am a bit limited in what I can convey when speaking Spanish. I’ve been practicing for about many years now and can speak to someone who speaks zero English. A lot of homes here have wall component air conditioners and occasionally they are only in the kitchen. I don’t think how they sleep at evening in the hot summers though. I tried sleeping without air conditioner but had a very difficult time decreasing to it. I had a couple fans next to myself and others although I was still perspiring like crazy. It would have been much easier if I just bought a small portable mini cut air conditioner for my kitchen although I thought I could hack it without, I was slightly wrong on this a single. The fans were just blowing hot air on myself and others all evening. I told my bestie that this is how you cook a turkey, it’s called forced air convection. My flat I live in now has central heat and air, and I am beyond grateful for it. It makes everything more wonderful when the lake house is at a comfortable temperature. Thank God for climate control devices for our homes.
