tony

this is tony. he was outside the restaurant.
rob and tyson had partied with him earlier on their trip.
he makes jewelry by hand and sells it. (i bought two pairs of earrings from him!)
he's such a sweet guy.
i love how easy it is to make friends in nicaragua.
and it doesn't matter if they can't remember your name the next time they see you,
because the kind sentiment remains the same.

i only wished my high school spanish skills weren't so poor.
so i could have talked to and gotten to know him and everyone else we met.
but i'm remedying that. i started with a spanish tutor today.
languages aren't my strong suit. but if i practice my spanish and strengthen my mandarin,
i'll be able to speak to about 80% of the world.
