I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!

So I was a little nervous about going on my site visit this week, but not anymore!! I love the organization that I am working with and I love the family that I will be living with. I have a great set-up. I live close enough that I can walk 15 min to work. And i have a great office, with some really amazing people. The city is big, its busy, but its great... I finally get that South American vibe from it. I will have internet everyday at work! and in my house! I am going to take pictures tonight, and tomorrow... I know everyone wants to see pictures! But the internet is really slow up north and im only here for a couple of days! But i will post them!

Btw, the heat is not as bad as I thought is was going to be, but they are keep telling me that its really cold here, and they have jackets on.... we shall see!

Its been wayyyyy to long....

Hello Everyone!

Sorry it has been such a loong time since I have writen on my blog, it has been crazy busy the last couple of weeks, but i had some time after cook classes today to write... I have been trying to load photos for a while but will no luck, but dont worry i am taking them!

Training has been going great, have all sorts of classes during the week, lots of mud and rain the last couple of weeks, with a few nice days peppered in....

The next two weeks are the big weeks though... Next week I get to find out where I will be living the next two years...eeks... its a surprise but not really, for those of us in the HIV program we are going to be in the province of Guayas, and mostly in Guayaquil... Then the week after that we head out for our site visit which will be very interesting, it will be the first time that i will be on my own since i have been here... But i will be just fine, but after that we will be back for a couple of weeks and then onto our tech trip.... But i only have about 5 and a half more weeks here in training... I will hopefully upday you guys agian soon...
