Misadventures in My Own Island of Gringa-ness

Pokemon - gotta catch them all

GUATEMALA | Wednesday, 5 June 2013 | Views [360]

So apparently my red face has not gone unnoticed here either. When I was chatting with the Spanish tutors before we began today, Lili asked me if there were other members of my family that had red cheeks like I do. I explained that I was the only member with them. Lili said that “Usually people in this country only have those cheeks if they live in a cold area.” Then Martha says, “Yeah, you know Pokemon? You look like Pikachu.”

Such a compliment, well, at least I know that my red face is kind of universally weird.
