Hola. Me llamo Vasco Núñes de Balboa. Soy un explorador. Yo soy de Jerez de los Caballeros, España. Soy inteligente, ordenado, y muy muy atrevido. No soy impaciente o reservado. Empecé a explorar a los diecisiete años. Yo soy famoso por descubrir el océano Pacifico.

Yo descubrí un océano Pacifico en el trece de Septiembre de 1513. Nosotros encontramos mucho oro y riquezas a la océano Pacifico. Rey Ferdinand de España estuvo muy orgulloso de mí, y él fue feliz. Después de mi descubrimiento, fui muy estimado, y mis amigos estuvieron celosos de mí.

Mi amigo, Dávila, estuvo muy celoso, y fui a cárcel. Después de mi rápido ensayo, fui sentenciado a muerte. En 1519, yo me morí.

What i gathered is that this Balboa fellow was an explorer from Spain that came to the Americas in the 1500's. Bacause I'm not very good at reading spanish, I could only pick out certain phrases, but I could tell that this conquistador did something significant.

Wow, discovering the Pacific Ocean must have been awesome. Definitely a sense of accomplishment. I couldn't quite read all of it, but it sounds as if his friends were jealous of him. Considering what he did though, I guess that's not suprising. Great post,I enjoyed it!
