Ok, so not a lot of time today seeing how I am about to get moved into my host's family's home, but just wanted to say that the scenery is very beautiful outside of town. Within the city, the poverty definitely rings true, but everyone is very dressed up and formal and helpful with my bad attempts at spanish! We had a cultural orientation today and then were sent on a scavenger hunt throughout the city to find random things like fuit and veggie markets, supermarkets, money exchange place, etc. I can't wait to finally meet Maria (my host mom) and see the house I will be living in for the next 3 months! Hopefully I can talk more tomorrow friends! Buenos tardes (good afternoon)!
