I haven't gone to Bolivia, yet, but probably this summer. I do talk to them though, phone, email that sort of thing. It IS a beautiful country! I've only been to La Paz (where I was born) and Cochabamba, but from what I do remember it was just breath taking. When I go back I plan to visit Lake Titicaca, hopefully that will happen this year.
(no subject)
Cochabamba is suuuuuch a cool name ^-^ Wee, if you do go, take pictures, I wanna see! Hey, how old were you when you went to the states?
(no subject)
I believe I was 8 when I left Bolivia, I was a little thing, heh. So I've been in the States for about 13 years, if I'm not mistaken.
(no subject)
Wow, that's such a long time! Do you still speak with your family in Spanish?
(no subject)
It really is, isn't it? I speak Spanish with my dad, not my mom though, she likes to practice her English. But if I don't speak Spanish with my dad he has a heartattack, heh.
I always meant to ask you, where did you learn English?
(no subject)
I've always thought it sad when people living in other countries don't teach their language to their kids, so it's nice to know you do get to practice it. :)
Well, my dad started to teach me when I was like, three; then I was in a bilingual school for a year and then no more classes until I was, uh, 8? From then on, I've always had English as a subject in school (I even had an American teacher giving Mexican History and we tortured him by asking him to say 'Parangutirimicuaro and Tepoztipotla XD), but the classes were always kinda sucky. Then I discovered fanfic, and since HP sounded lame and cheesy in Spanish, I moved over to read it in English (that'd be in 2002). Then I started reading real books, and then writing in it, and it's all just come on its own XD I haven't had classes for almost a year now, so I haven't had that much chance to practice it orally, but oh well. [/rant]

Well, I also took Spanish classes here all through highschool, and Latin too. But when I got to college I wanted to learn something new so I took Portuguese.
But that's amazing nonetheless! Because you write very well in English, so I'm sure orally you're just as good! More reasons to looove books, you learned English through them, how lovely.
(no subject)
Portuguese! Someday I'd love to learn that, it sounds oh so pretty ^-^ How long have you been taking it?
Awww, thanks; and yes! I own book soooo much XD
(no subject)
See? that's the reason I still</i< need classes. *sigh*
(no subject)
Ooh, Portuguese is beautiful! I took it for two years, I wanted to continue taking it but there weren't enough students who signed up for the class so they cancelled Portuguese V. I was very distraught. What was lovely about that class was that there were never more than 9 kids in there, so it was very intimate and we were able to learn faster. My Professor was from Portugal and she was amazing, very loud, so funny, that I just loved her.
Sadly it's been a while since I've spoken or written anything in Portuguese, I might start up again since I still have a lot of the textbooks lying around.

Write drabbles! I promise, they help a lot. :)
(no subject)
Maybe I will, although my grammar is a little iffy in Portuguese.
