Practice Time

This is a time of practice, for the promotores and myself. For me, I am in language school 3-4 hours/ day and practicing in the street and at home. I don't feel like I am making much progress but I know something must be sinking in.

For the promotores, this is a time that they are in their pueblos and begining to practice their new skills. The plan is to visit the pueblos in the Sierra Norte on Sunday and Tuesday. Instead of renting a car we helped pay for the significant repairs to Lauro's car. It was a much more sustainable use of funds. He will especially need his car after June when the main CECIPROC office in Mexico City will close Lauro's office here in Oaxaca and he will need to commute over the mountains for 6 hours to the coast to do his work. He will spend a week at a time there as will his wife who also works for the organization. They have teen daughters here so they need to stay in the city as well.
