Conversation with Nestor
Nestor is a really nice guy! I enjoy talking to him so much. I felt like this was the first time that I actually had an intelligent conversation with someone in Spanish.

I was very interested in his hometown because I’ve never heard of it. Above is a picture I found of the beautiful city. This is my conversation [...]
