Hello there,
I am Juan Careaga, I was born in Valdivia.
As a southern boy, I really enjoyed the rain and winter. I am a member of a family of 4. Sometimes, I tend to say we were 6 as I like to include my grandmother and my dog. My father was a Math teacher at the local school. He liked to play chess and dominoes on Sunday evenings with me. My sister and mother are both nurses at the local hospital. They work together since my sister graduated from university. Usually they cooked sopaipillas for us on weekends. Grandmother enjoyed doing word jumble games.
Our dog has a black tail and likes to bark at the shadows. He is very playful but extremely cautious with strangers.
I studied at University of Valparaiso but finished here in Santiago. I also lived in England where I did a master on Linguistics. Teaching is what I like the most.
Your dog is so tiny and cute. We need more pictures of him or maybe he can be a special guest in our classes jiji

ReplyDeleteIt's amazing when your English teacher, in addition to studying in Chile, had the opportunity to study abroad. I would like to know more about your stay in England and whether you lived the Football Premier League atmosphere in the city on weekends jajaja.
