Three classes with the older kids, one translator by my side, and a backpack full of travel storiesāwhat could possibly go wrong?
Honestly, I had so much fun in every classā¦ but the last group? They took things to another level.
Apparently, riding a Honda Shadow through the Americas officially qualifies me as a gangsterāand not just any gangsterā¦ a taco gangster. I mean, Iāll add that to the CV.
What started as a slightly panicked āOMG, what have I doneā¦ Iām not kid-friendlyā¦ someone rescue me!ā quickly turned into laughter, connection, and moments I genuinely loved. Funny how that happens when you just lean into the chaos.
And hereās the real plot twistāput a teacher in the room, and suddenly these wild little legends transform into angels. Timing is everything!
In the end, I walked away smiling, a little more confident, and really grateful for the experience. Safe to say, Bulgaria has made a lasting impressionā¦ and itās officially locked in for my next European adventure.
