Salina Cruz week one

Hey all,

I have been in Salina Cruz for almost a week now. Wow the time has flown. The people I have met here and the people I am staying with are the most generous and hospitable people I have ever met. If people in the US could only understand how I have been recieved here, they would be ashamed at how Mexicans have been recieved in our country.

I am still shaky with my spanish, and cant understand everything, but it is becoming easier. Watching the mediation process in Spanish is facinating but I think that mediation will be 10 times easier when I get back, just beacause it will be in English.

I am a bit sad I only have two more weeks here.
