Three things that have made my life infinitely richer: Photography, my second language (Spanish) and teaching. This summer I got to combine all of them, and teach photography classes in Spanish to students from Panama at the New York Film Academy in Burbank Ca. At the beginning of July, my students got their certificates and exhibited their work at a gallery space on 5th and Main. There was a lot of singing, smiling, laughing, celebrating and a few tears. The experience in some ways felt like the summer camp counseling job of my college years that led me to a career in education, except of course my students and I were all a bit older...
 Adios, mis Panameños, I am so lucky.
