#Occupy the Patio: Open Exhibit Humans of Pinto

These last days of May, students of Intermediate Level 1 have organized an exhibition in the patio to welcome the spring, and celebrate the joy of being alive, after surviving a looong year of studying English at our school! They share a tiny yet intimate bit of their feelings as humans.

Thanks a lot to all of you for just being around.

Love,

María
