Last Days in MVD
As we get ready to take up the backpacker lifestyle anew, we look back on our 4 months in Montevideo with fondness. We made lots of friends, mastered a new dialect of Spanish, and taught many English classes at the London Institute! Teaching was an experience we will never forget, even though sometimes the planning and challenges of the job got the best of us. We developed fantastic relationships with many of our students and will not forget them. Several of our classes threw us going away parties and gave us gifts to remember them by. Overall, Montevideo worked out perfectly for our purposes. The city is one of the safest capitals in South America and we were able to earn a decent wage teaching English. Our goal was to teach for roughly 4 months, which we could do here, while throughly exploring the city and absorbing the culture since the city is of such a manageable size. Here are some pictures from my last week of work...unfortunately, there aren´t any from Phil´s classes at the moment:
