Estoy en Ecuador.

I don´t have a lot of time --- I won´t lie, it is because I just wrote a long personal email and now its time for me to go to bed, yes, at 8 o clock.

I got in really late last night-made it through customs-unpacked- and got in the bed around 1 am, then unknowingly I woke up at 630 rather than 730 because though my phone is picking up Ecuador signal and says something in spanish across the front, it still has eastern time. No se porque, I do not know why. 

I am staying with Sra. Melba and her almost 19 year old daughter Dani. They are both really nice and really patient with me. They seem to have quite the high expectations of when I will improve on my Spanish comprehension but... umm... We will see. 

The apartment is super d dooper nice!!! way nicer than the dorms. I have a small room at the very top of the apt and it has its own bathrooms. I was like... Yeah, this is my community development internship and I have my own bathroom. There goes roughing it. SoOoO It is clear that god has other ways of making me suffer on this internship. I mean learn. Not suffer, learn, ya know, like a learning experience. Yeah. Interns are supposed to suffer a bit, thats why I say that. Just to clear the record, I in no way believe God plans to make us suffer, only grow in our dependence on him. which I plan to go do right now and read more Bible bc I miss someone a lot, ohhhh did I say someone. I mean everyone. I miss you all. Nighty night. 

No- I have not taken any pictures yet. I want to soak in the experience before I start looking through a lens everyday. MAYBE you can expect pictures in the next two weeks.
