Here women are often greeted with a right cheek to right cheek air-kiss – by women and men. It seems to be very common, and not just among friends. I’m still trying to figure out the custom and get used to it.

Glad to hear you both are integral parts of the life of the Institute!

(PS – The Comedor de Niños here is in a part of a school run by Salesian Sisters and there are Salesian volunteers here.)
