Publisher Description:
What happens when you surround yourself for a month with people who speak no English?Tom enrolls in a Guatemalan Spanish school where only Spanish is spoken from day one, and then moves in with a local family who also speaks only Spanish. Some might call this immersion learning. Tom calls it slow starvation when he can't even say, "Please pass the tacos," his first night at dinner. Follow this sixty-something adventurer as he cruises cobble-stoned streets on a kid's bike, climbs an active volcano with a group of overly athletic twenty-year olds, and falls off a local bus. At least he's learning Spanish...except when he asks directions for a male lover instead of an ATM, orders beer ice cream, and tells a man he meets on the street, "I like you very much."Buy this book today. It's sure to tickle your funny bone.
