Living Thirteen Years in Latin America (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781638123767)

Living Thirteen Years in Latin America is a synopsis of three books: Living in El Salvador,

Living in Nicaragua, and Living in Brazil. As a twenty-year-old, I joined the Peace Corps and

was sent to El Salvador. Before going to El Salvador, I spent three months on a mountain top in a

Puerto Rican rain forest learning Spanish-a language for which I had had no previous exposure.

Living in El Salvador documents my struggles with learning Spanish and then adjusting to the

cultural differences of living in a small room in Sonsonate, El Salvador and working with small

Indian farmers.
