The euro is used here, just as in the rest of the country!

How much does a bottle of water cost?:

A bottle of water is about 1€, or the equivalent of $1.10.

What was the best meal this week?:

I tried out a rabbit (conill, in Catalan) stew with potatoes and carrots for the first time. It was not my favorite, so I don't think I will try it out again!

What music did I listen to this week?:

Instead of music, I listened to podcasts this week, which are like radio programs. I listened to N.P.R. Politics to get caught up on the 2020 election in the U.S.A.!

What activity was the most fun this week?:

I went to the Postal Museum in Ordino, which taught me all about Andorra's postal system. Much has changed since Andorra's beginning when the mail was carried by mule or horse. Thankfully we have mail trucks and mailboxes nowadays!

What did I read this week?:

I read my students' scripts for their English presentations and gave them feedback on how to improve. Learning a new language requires lots of practice!
