Dodo is on board since one week.
“When I took my last flight from Houston to Guatemala City, I was
really stressed, because I knew, things would be different, but when
I finally left the airport, I thought it was Napoli instead of Guate.
But still this isn't Europe, which I learned very fast, because if
something works in Napoli, then it's the road building but in Guate
the roads and the drivers aswell are very shitty. And if you are used
to European roads and travel on those potholed dirt roads for many
hours, you get a feeling of being at the and of the world and to be
honest, this feeling didn't change by now, because I think this
really is the end of the world. But I like the end of the world
pretty much, because it's very pretty. Like the streets, very dirty
but somehow awesome. Even though my Spanish is not the best, I am
able to communicate with the kids already and playing soccer is also
an international language, that everyone gets. I'm looking
forward to come back here, after I improved my Spanish in Antigua for
a month, so I can exchange more than “donde esta la pelota” or
“no tocar mi cabello sin preguntar” and grin silly, when I don't
get a word again. But by now I'm really glad to be here, sweating my
soul out of my body when I make a step, instead of being in the
shitty weather, that Hamburg provides at the moment :)“
