And we're back!

Hello all!

So sorry that we haven't posted in ages! It's been a mess of transitioning and settling into Spain.

The first news is that we graduated and received our TEFL certificates! Now we can teach English! Right after our graduation and farewell party, A and I moved to Sol. We are now in a tiny apartment where you can just see Puerta del Sol (if you strain your neck to the right).

The area is a complete change from Cuarto Caminos. Every time we leave the apartment, we are bombarded by people outside. It's a lot like living in Times Square. It also feels like everything takes so long to do because there are so many slow people walking ahead of you. At the moment, they are renovating Puerta del Sol. This means that at 8:30 every morning, you can hear constant jack hammers for the entire day. Not my cup of tea. Fortunately, they have made a lot of progress and seem to be finishing up.

A and I are currently in the middle of finalizing job opportunities. Since we are freelance, this means we are interviewing all over the city and trying to get job prospects where ever possible. A has already begun teaching a class in the north of town. I hope to set up hours this week.

Anyway, that's all for now. We have been pretty boring trying to stay home and save money. Now that our internet is hooked up, I will post pictures soon!
