Ok lets see how long I get to actually use the computer. Im in San Vicente right now doing training sessions, so I have just a minute..... I don't get a lot of time to use the computer because other people are using it or I have to leave to get the bus because my training host community is a little farther away than most. The community is called Molineros and I'm glad its farther away because it is up by a volcano, so its actually "cooler" there. Thats definitely a relative term. Lets just say I've been pretty sweaty! Big surprise? Well I LOVE Molineros and my host family. I live with a young woman named Mela and her two daughters Sindy (age 5) and Dayana (age 10). They are all beautiful and wonderful. Mela's mother, father, grandmother, sisters, cousins, etc. also live in the community and I see them all on a regular basis. Its a really small community, about 300 families, and its really beautiful. There are lots of fruit trees (MANGOS!!) and tomatoes, cucumbers, and corn corn corn! I get to eat a lot of watermelon, too, which in my opinion is awesome. Lots of hammock time, too. I love hammocks. I spend a lot of time talking with my family and playing with the kids, etc. My spanish has been improving a lot and I'm starting to get used to the accent and caliche (slang here) Theres so much more to say but, as I expected, my time is up!
