hola all!!
como estan? life is really good here in costa rica! as they say, pura vida!
i live with an amazing host family in san jose....so lemme give you the rundown!
dad lives in panama right now working as a mechanic for his family.
mi madre is yamileth...she is so sweet! she actually has her own church in our house, which has been interesting to see all the other people come in and all!
sisters: jessica 23 alejandra 17 ariana 15
brother: marcos 10
nephew: aron, 2!
sooo needless to say, life is pretty exciting around here, getting used to the bus systems and all that, which are actually pretty easy to figure out. everything goes into san jose and then goes back out the same way. its nice! =)
we head to limon, the huge port city on the carribbean this weekend, which should be pretty exciting! we´ll get to see the banana exporting, probably some cruise ships and all that..tourists...hahaha :)
school is going well, im really enjoying the classes that we are taking! we are going to be experiencing some pretty awesome speakers, the runner up of the last presidential election will be coming in to talk to us in a few weeks, which should be really interesting!
ahhh yes, life in costa rica is good, i dont know what else to say! i know you probably have a lot of questions. =) just keep praying for me, its usually pretty easy, but of course there are those times when i get homesick just because its hard to communicate with home and all of that. just prayer for strength through God and for me to really put myself out there in the culture and really sink my feet in! i know that is hard right now, and sometimes its hard to put myself out there, but i will only be here for a short time, so i just need prayer to keep working at it and keep feeling good!
i hope that you are all doing well at home, i miss you all like CRAZY! =) thank you so much for all of your support and all of your thoughts and prayers for me, i could never have done this without each one of you in my life!
mucho amor,
Que dios bendiga
