Our roommate, Paolo, celebrates his 27th birthday today. The two Juliannas, Sarah, and I plan a little luncheon celebration after our classes, and we return to his (and our) favorite seafood restaurant, El Paisa. The English girls are a hoot - Sarah´s Cockney-ish South London accent and her tough exterior belie a warm heart. Julianna, from England´s north, is a sweetheart - intensely caring. Both are worldly and chic and unbelievably funny. Haven´t laughed this hard in awhile - my stomach muscles cry out for a rest after spending time with the Brits and their special brand of humor. Singapore Julianna, always smiling, has a strong thirst for knowledge and is determined to perfect her Spanish skills. Her commitment to learning contrasts with my casual attitude.
The day ends with a batch of Pisco Sours and a toast and new friends.
