🇲🇽 Mi alumna y amiga Ellen me visitó en octubre.
Viajó desde Minnesota para conocer Querétaro y practicar su español.

Paseamos por el Centro Histórico e hicimos un recorrido turístico guiado.

Comimos chilaquiles, enchiladas y gorditas.
Obviamente tomamos agua de horchata, que a ambas nos encanta.

🇺🇸 My student and friend Ellen came to visit me in October.
She traveled all the way from Minnesota to explore Queretaro and practice her Spanish.

We wandered around the Historic Center and took a guided tour.

We had chilaquiles, enchiladas, and gorditas.

And of course, we drank horchata, which we both love!

🇩🇪💕🇲🇽

Kathi y Tino nos visitan desde Alemania.

Pasamos un día muy divertido recorriendo algunos lugares de Querétaro, comiendo y tomando cosas nada mexicanas 😅, riendo y aprendiendo más del idioma español y del alemán.

También se dieron cuenta de que en realidad las margaritas no son taaaan comunes en México, jaja.
De todas formas conseguimos algunas porque por qué no 😜🍸🍹

¡Nos vemos pronto, amigos! 🫂

Posdata: ACHTUNG! 🚨‼️

Kathi and Tino are visiting us from Germany.

We had a really fun day touring some places in Querétaro, eating and drinking non-Mexican things 😅, laughing and learning more about Spanish and German.

They also realized that margaritas aren't actually that common in Mexico, haha.
We got some anyway because why not 😜🍸🍹

See you soon, friends! 🫂

🔸 Tengo hambre (I am hungry)
– Use this phrase when you're feeling hungry and ready for a meal.
Example: "Tengo hambre. ¿Vamos a cenar?" (I am hungry. Shall we have dinner?)

🔸 Tengo sed (I am thirsty)
– Perfect for when you need a refreshing drink. Example: "Tengo sed. ¿Me podría dar un vaso de agua?" (I am thirsty. Can I have a glass of water?)

🔸 Tengo sueño (I am sleepy)
– When you're ready to call it a night. Example: "Tengo sueño. Me voy a dormir." (I am sleepy. I'm going to sleep.)

Why Use "Tener"?

In Spanish, we often use the verb "tener" (to have) to express physical states and conditions that in English are typically expressed with the verb "to be." This includes feelings of hunger, thirst, and sleepiness.

Fun Facts:

1. Literal vs. Figurative: Unlike English, where "I am hungry" or "I am thirsty" use the verb "to be," in Spanish, we use the verb "tener" to express these states.

2. Cultural Insights: In Spanish-speaking cultures, sharing meals is a vital part of social life. Knowing these phrases can help you connect better with locals.

3. Practice Tip: Try using these phrases in different sentences to get comfortable. For example, "Después de correr, siempre tengo sed" (After running, I am always thirsty).
