Erica is a busy educator who teaches at four schools. (Biblioteca Popular Bernardino Rivadavia y sus Anexos, Instituto Secundario Manuael Belgrano, Liverpool Cursos de Ingles e Instrumentos, and the Rivendell School of English) She also serves on the Fundacion Cultural Dr. Antonio Sobral which provides funding for a poor, rural school. She is married to Pablo and is the mother of Carola, Sebastian, and Agustine. Erica enjoys close family ties that center around her father's Cafe Chesca where many family members meet over delicious meals. During my stay with Erica in Villa Maria, I was kept very busy teaching in two of her four schools, delivering a seminar at the Escuela Normal Victor Mercante and visiting the Escuela Superior Integral De Lecheria and Escuela Dr. Antonio Sobral.
Erica and her wide network of friends filled the hours between schools with cultural events that included visits to an art museum, multi-media library, city park, city center, restaurants, family homes, and shops. Erica's affection for her students was returned a thousand fold - and extended to me by their warm, friendly greetings. I was well-cared for in Villa Maria and will not forget this generous city of friends.
