Bye-Bye Bloggers

Hi FAU Bloggers. Today it's time to write the final post, which is to evaluate your blog experience this semester.  So, I've been really lucky this semester because I had great students in both my level 3 classes. I liked the way that you were all willing to collaborate and make the most of the time in class to focus on practicing and perfecting your English. That made my job much easier. I also enjoyed the classroom atmosphere, especially when you joked or teased each other in English. Humour is always a good tool for learning:) It was also nice to read about your experiences, interests or opinions.  I think the post I most enjoyed writing was A Beautiful Place in Chile, I wrote about a trip to Punta Arenas that I made last summer.

A Place to Eat

Hi FAU Bloggers: One of my favourite places to eat in Santiago is Ram Salaam, an Indian restaurant in Santa Isabel between Condell and Italia. It's 100% authentic and is extremely cheap for the quality. I like it because although the recipes are quite basic, they are wonderfully tasty. Another thing I like about Ram Salaam is the fact that it has many vegan options. I eat there at least once a month. I usually go with my wife but we often go with friends and always take visiting family there. Some people find it a little "grubby" but I love it. My favourite dishes are the lentil and mushroom dishes but they also offer other tasty options. The family who run the restaurant are from Northern Indian. They have 2 young children both of whom have been born since we have been regulars at the restaurant. The young children used to help in the restaurant but they went back to Indian with their mother last February. The father plans to stay here on his own for 2 or 3 years.  Mainl
