Where oh where has the time gone?

Thursday, June 25, 2009


My intention was to blog regularly to keep track of the events that transpire over the course of my travels. That being said, it is hard to capture these moments, many happen so quickly, that my brain cannot hold onto them long enough to outlive the next equally important event. Many of my favorites will be lost in the shuffle, but their effect will remain imprinted on me.

The last month has proved to be stimulating, emotional, exciting and most of all unexpected. My plan when coming here was to live with out a plan. Within hours of arriving, I had a new job, and now 1 month later, I am living in a completely different apartment, by myself, doing a job I thoroughly enjoy and surrounded by people and places that although completely foreign to me, now provide a sense of comfort.

I am once again considering moving to a new place. This time, it would be to a B&B that is located on top of a very large hill, in a place called Santa Teresa. I have the opportunity to work for my accommodations at a very beautiful guest house in an antiquated neighborhood, atop a massive hill, with stunning views of the city.

The project at CALLE is now starting to require more effort and time. We are short on volunteers and it requires, myself and the others to take on more classes than we had intended. I am still enjoying the project, but would like to find a way to contribute something more unique than my knowledge of the English language and my unwavering patience. I am still contemplating what my contribution should be, I will update when I have figured that out.

I am in a better place than I was 5 weeks ago when I arrived, and I expect to grow leaps and bounds in the next 5 months. I will do my best to document that more frequently and more effectively. Until next time...beijos! (kisses)
