The session
The most recent Circle, and the one that best explains why any of this exists. Pim spent an exchange year in Bolivia with a host family. Years later her host sister, Francis Rojas, came to Bangkok — and the two of them turned the reunion into a public walk.
The group moved along the Chao Phraya practising simple Spanish with a native speaker, stopping at temples and shophouses on the way, and finishing by feeding the turtles at Wat Prayurawongsawas. No Spanish required to join. That is usually the case here.
“From an exchange year in Bolivia to a Spanish Walk in Bangkok.”
