Taking it a step further: Multi-Cultural Exchange
I decided about a week ago that if I have to learn a new language so does my host family. So I have started teaching my host siblings Spanish. Yup, that's right, my host family says everything in three languages now - Setswana, English, and Spanish! It's been a lot of fun and we laugh really really hard at ourselves all the time. And then, in a few weeks, I am going to take this multi-cultural exchange a step further and make them some Mexican food and have a fiesta! Ole!
