36. Now a few short fragments about Linda’s insights of Colombia from her letters…
37. “ People here know Latvia more than in M o rocco , but the funniest thing is how they pronounce the word "Latvia". They say " Latbiha " because of the different sound of the same letters in Spanish. ”
38. “ In shops here there are no bigger shoe sizes for women than 39. For men it's 43 (and they consider it to be a large size for a men ’ s shoe). When I tell my Columbian friends that in Latvia 43-45 is the medium size for men, they ask what gigants do live there in Latbiha? :D ” “ In shops here there are no bigger shoe sizes for women than 39.

39. “ In the neighborhood of the house we live in is a kindergarten. There they have parrots, who imitate the sounds of little kids – laughing, screaming, talking, crying , etc. On early Sunday mornings it can get really irritating. Therefore we have such plans as sending a spy parrot, who teaches them to be silent or just make a grilled parrot :D"
40. "In Spanish "linda" means "beautiful". Now I start to think that it's unfortunate, because everyone w ho I meet for the first time wants to be the one who announces me these "news". It would be easier if I was Maria, which is the name of every second woman "

45. Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. Mark Twain
