5 months and counting

ok so I haven't written in quite a long time...since I've written... so where am I now... I've been in this country for 5 months and Now I'm starting to understand almost everything I hear in spanish and starting to speak and think I know what I'm saying... whether or not they understand what I'm saying is a different thing....

So what is my project... Not exactly sure yet, but I'm going to explain what I think it could be...
Recycling- I want to start a recycling program in my site to deal with the plastic trash...
English classes-  I want to start english classes, because people who want to work in tourism (they have a much higher chance of getting a job if they can speak english)
Brigada Verde- A club for kids to learn about the environment.
Cleaning- the river and the cave of Bernard, the two main tourist attractions
A Federation of the different associations of boca de yuma to help people to push for more development and get help from their family abroad.
Work to develop to some sort of business with my women's association... we'll see how that goes...
