WHEW!

So life in Greece has been a whirlwind of learning, teaching, writing papers, taking a big grammar test.........and now it's over. I'm officially ready to teach English! I can't believe it. It has been such an incredible experience taking this course.......for anyone that is looking for an adventure, to meet new lifelong friends, to learn a TON, and to have fun doing it....well this is the place to be.

We all graduated yesterday! We were so excited to learn we all passed the grammar exam - it was a 3 hour intense exam.....but the end result was success for all of us.

As a class with our two instructors we went out for drinks and dinner and then to the beach. What a fun day. That night we went out to celebrate our success and graduation in the course but also one of our instructors was also celebrating her birthday! We got home at 6 am! that is starting to feel normal......probably not so healthy but OH SO MUCH FUN!

Today we slept off our tiredness and hangovers on the beach and now we're all going to hang out together tonight and take it easy.

I have SO MANY pictures to post. Just trying to find time. The pictures do a much better job of telling the story of my adventure here. I even have one with Einstein this time......his actual name is George and he is so much fun.

OH - looks like I'm staying in Greece to teach. Actually looks like I'm staying in Chania! YAY!


Love to all!

  2. Kate, Congrats! I am glad you will be staying in Greece. Now I can start planning a trip to come visit you and side trips to Santorini and back to Rhodes (still my favorite island). Hopefully you will still be there next spring. I am thinking May. Melanie
