Viva Honduras!

I'm finally here and I feel right at home. People here are so wonderful! The school and city has changed ALOT since I've been here: new library, new gymnasium, new offices, and I'm even in a new building to teach 4th grade.

I've been going running (or I should say attempting too) but the high altitude is killing my lungs. We learned how to clean our fruits and vegetables by soaking them into bleach water... I know, it sounds like a health hazard to me too. But that's life in a third world country.

My apartment is huge and there are 4 of us living there. I'm really excited to get to know them better as well as the other staff member. There are 4 other graduates from Calvin here so that's been really nice.

I will post pictures soon, but off to cooking my first dinner. Wish me luck.

  1. Hey An! It sounds like a great city! How cool that you get to teach in a new building! Have you started doing anything in your classroom yet? Good job on the running! :) I'm glad that you like the apartment and are getting to know people! How did it go cooking your first dinner? I'm so glad you are enjoying Honduras! My family says hi! Love you!
