It Started in Costa Rica Three Years Ago, This
Month
June 2014
I went
there to teach English in San Jose, as a second language
I was given a grueling schedule, but I was going to do it
The day before I was to start
The owner of the school told the supervisor
“Withdraw the Offer” because I appeared to be a
1960's,70's, Angela Davis, Berkeley University, social, political activist, hippy type with long hair
My heart fluttered just for a moment
But what a compliment!!
I have always loved Angela Davis!!
Being rejected
Backpackers at my hostel said “backpack and experience travel”
I immediately started and my first city was Granada, Nicaragua
The rejection led to a most wonderful life experience
Three years’ worth
I have no regrets
