I went to the airport this week to pick up some tickets for going home to Ireland. While in the line-up I met Erika, a young student from Mexico. Her flight had been delayed and customs took ages so she missed he connection to small town BC..and no more flights until the following morning. So I called her host family for her, took her home, called her family in Mexico, did a quick trip to the beach and the university to show her around (she was FREEZING...ohhh..wait until she experiences the winter's in BC's interior...poor girl! LOL)
Here she is at the beach with Cara. Compare her clothing to the lady in the background :-) (OK that lady was a little under dressed for the temp I have to say)
after dinner she gave us a little treat from Mexico..Dulce de Leche (Sweet Milk I think it means?)
OMG...I have to google the recipe...so amazing..
The next morning Erika headed off to the Interior for her 4 month home stay ..she is training to be an English student in Mexico. We invited her to stay with us for a few days on her way back home in December. She was such a sweet girl and looked so frightened and scared at the airport I just had to bring her home with me :-)
