1983...

 

Bournemouth, England. Once I went back to Peru after living in Ecuador for the best part of 6 years or so, I went to study at the Anglo-Continental exchange school in England. The main reasons was that I had to learn some English, for my studies in Ecuador had been strictly in Spanish and my studies in Peru were going to be at Newton College, a British High School. To make the long story short, life in Bournemouth was fun and filled with new experiences, the least of which was learning English :). I did learn some, but since I spend most of my time with Spanish-speaking friends, whatever I learned was very quickly set aside and forgotten. It would not be until I went to Vermont that I truly embraces English as a second language.

Some of the places we went to were Stonehenge, but the most enjoyable time was always playing soccer.
