Universidad Florencio del Castillo is a local university or maybe a university extension, not really sure. We're housed in a long concrete building perpendicular to the street with classrooms opening onto a wide concrete walkway. The large window and door are covered with metal fencing but no glass or wood. Fans are bolted to the walls, and we drag tall standing fans in from a storage room. On a typical day we have about 10 fans blowing on us.

One classroom is actually totally outdoors, only a high tin roof covering it and no walls.

There's a skinny tom cat living onsite who enjoys hanging out in our classroom... it's ok, he's quiet, but I worry because he's got a big gash on his neck from a fight... I guess the scar will prove his street cred, but I'd like to get some antiseptic on it in the meantime... The students are ok with the cat wandering in and out during lessons, but they aren't the least interested in his name or who actually owns him... first world notions..... Sometimes they feed him their leftovers. It's become pretty obvious he doesn't like rice and beans.

There're also some equally skinny chickens roaming the yard. (Rosita at my house is fat and fluffy, so I guess we must be rich.)
