I made it safely to Paraguay and am in the internet cafe for just a few minutes with five of my host sisters, who are adorable. They take me everywhere and are teaching me heaps of Spanish every minute of the day, which is great. I live in a small town and just about a kilometer from where my classes are.
I am having a little bit of a difficult time saying or shall i say writing in english because my three host sisters are sitting here chating away in spanish and actually now saying swears in english, woops, haha it is great.
i have not stopped sweating since i have arrived, but i take many showers each day, no worries. in the afternoon i need to take a bucket bath because the water runs out, but in the morning wheni wake up (at six am) there is enough water for me to shower for a little bit.
i havemi littlest sister sitting in my lap now asking what i am writing with every word and i can´t translate it all, that is for sure. she is obsessed with my nalgene bottle and her sitting in my lap is makingme sweat even more, it is humid and probalyu 100 degrees here today...
i have FRESH orange juice mucho and there is heaps of pulp in it and it keeps getting stuk on my chin and my host dad lauyghs at me .
i am exhausted and not sure what else to tell you all but i will write more soon.
i love it here...so far, wink wink!
i start classes in guarani tomorrow ...i passed out os spanish classes, no idea how... but i guess that is a good thing.
ok i am outta here.
love and miss you,
write me letters...or emails

Hey, I see you were in Guarambaré, is that right. Next friday I go down there, to do a civil social program in Guarambare. I am really excited. So can you give me some infos about this village. That would be awesome
