Spanish was not spoken in my house as a child; my father’s side of the family is of Irish ancestry, and my mother’s side of the family is of Scottish and British ancestry. Growing up, I took basic classes in middle school and high school. I learned only enough to barely survive in a Spanish-speaking country. Then, May 11 this year, I actually flew to Mexico City and lived there for a few months. I used AirBnb for lodging, at first living on Calle 174 in Venustiano Carranza with a girl my age named Astrid and her mother. The house was within walking distance from the international airport. Immersion was key to my success in learning Spanish. To basically function, I had to use this foreign tongue. I read signs on the street and labels on products in stores. Also, in the action of merely purchasing an item, I got to practice Spanish. Going to the local Walmart for the first time was quite the experience...

I acquired a permit for street performances in the city of Cambridge, MA. https://www.instagram.com/p/BogpNpZnEdQ/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet I busked (did street performances for cash) in Harvard Square and outside the student center of MIT. I barely made any money (only enough to buy pizza each time), but I enjoyed it quite thoroughly. In a conversation with one of my Mexican friends via Facebook Messenger, it was recommended that I try busking in NYC or D.C., as there are more people in these locations. Hence, I said goodbye to some Dedham acquaintances (workers at the library, 7-Eleven, Dunkin Donuts, etc.) and set off for D.C. I took a Greyhound bus from South Station to Union Station. In South Station, I got bored, and a kind stranger took a video of me juggling. https://www.facebook.com/jeff.farrell.9699/videos/715810115472093/?l=3630352978807989837 I was in D.C. from Oct. 10, 2018 to Oct. 18, 2018 (roughly? I don’t recall exactly. You can check the dates of my ...
