El Impossible
Tomateras
Last Sunday Amalia and Gabi woke me up from a nap to
go tomato picking.
I was groggy, unsure, but they insisted. "You gave us the seeds, remember?" I did remember...the seeds leftover from the almost abandoned school garden project I had started far too late in the school year. "Tienes que verlos, estan bien bonitos ya." So we went, hiking to the section of our village I hadn't visited yet, El Rinconcito, back through a winding gully path to a large terreno with rows and rows of healthy tomato plants in among orange, mandarin and lemon trees.

1,000 vacas
The other night I made plans to meet a friend, another volunteer, at a dance this Saturday. When she told her Salvadoran boyfriend that I would be there, he immediately called another friend to go as my date. I was a little alarmed. Oh no, he assured us, this guy has money. He owns 1,000 cows.
