Happy 4th of July!!!
So this week we concluded our third week and i am finally getting a hang of how things work around here! we celabrated the fourth of july last night. It was nothing how we do it in cali! The fireworks were like Gun shots it was insane. We are leaving for the village tomorow and I am super excited to get to go and visit all the new friends that i have made! The girls and people here are amazing! I have met a guy that is a tailor and he is the sweetest man. I have gone and sat at his shop three times now and every time he has offered me to go and have that dreded drink with him and his family, yes that dreded drink is chi! I will never get used to that unless it comes from starbucks in a frap mixed with a shot of esspresso! But he has asked me about my family and what it is like in cali and always ends our conversation with asking us to pray for his family. They dont have a ton of buisness at the store and need the money. I want to thank everyone for emailing me the other day I am feeling homesick and it really helped hearing from people. I will let you know what happens in the village. HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!!

So glad that you're up and about now and you sound like your old self again!
ReplyDeleteThat man sounds like a great guy. Don't you think that of all the news we hear on tv at home and all the horrible things that they report, when you actually go to visit places and meet people, 99% of them seem like good people? I think that the decent people are in the vast majority. It's the 5% that sometimes seems like 50%. You and the others being there give good PR to the people of the US. They hear things too and when they meet people like you they realize that the good far outweigh the others in our country too.
