Greetings, my friend! What a wonderful post! You really captured my attention from beginning to end. I was thrilled to read it; you're a great writer. I'm so glad you're discovering and experimenting with your voice. Here in Cuba, we speak a very strange kind of Spanish, hahaha. We cut words and add others in very creative ways. I realize I should also take a course like yours to learn a little more and have some fun too. Thank you for sharing your experience. Have a lovely day!
