settling in

I don't have much time to talk right now but I wanted to give an update on how the first few days are going. It is absolutely beautiful here. The weather is sunny and mostly warm(the wind makes it a little chilly at times). I am also surrounded by mountains, which I LOVE. It is just beautiful.

Apparently Guatemala City is quite dangerous, so we have cement walls around us and we have 24 hour guards at the gates(and they have guns! which is perfectly legal... :) ) so i haven't really left the campus but thats ok.

I am finding myself remembering my spanish(which isnt very much) and sometimes i am even thinking in spanish haha well the few words i know!

The children are adorable and I love being here. I haven't had a ton of interaction with them yet but I look forward to loving on them and spending lots of time with them.

well i really have to go but I will try to update again soon. I leave for Antigua for language school on Sunday and will be there until February 19th. I'm not sure of internet access there but I will do my best! :)
