Busy June

June was a fun and busy month for me...

Besides the nine Moishe events we put on, there was a group of nine kids from the U.S. here the entire month studying Spanish through Hillel Uruguay on a program I helped organize. I spent a lot of time with them and it was fun showing them around Montevideo, especially our Moishe House!

One of our events this month was really incredible. Three of the Spanish Program kids and I went to Punta Colorada (a city in Uruguay about two hours from Montevideo) to help take care of penguins that were harmed by a recent oil spill. It was a bit disgusting cleaning up the penguin poop and shoving fish down their throats, but really an amazing experience to be able to help 140 sick penguins.

Another cool thing was when I went with the Spanish Program students to Buenos Aires for a weekend and a few of us were able to hit up a Moishe House event there. It was awesome to see another house in action, and I want to send a shot out to MH BA for hosting us. Thanks guys! It was a lot of fun.

So June was good and I think July will be an active month for us too. I'm looking forward to it. Take care everyone,
