Well, the Oakcrest group has left. But a new group came in today. I feel like we´re at the airport all the time. It´s going to be hard for any group to take Oakcrest´s place because they were such a great group!
My friendshìps with the people here are growing day by day. I´m practicing so much Spanish and helping people with their English as well. It´s so great to be surround by my friends at Baxter once again. I can´t believe I´ve almost been here for a WHOLE month! It´s crazy to think about but i´ve enjoyed EVERY minute of it. The more time I spend here the more I really think I could live here or somewhere else in Latin America. I love the culture and people so much. I feel very much at home.
Tuesday, we went to Jovenes en Caminos with the Oakcrest group and it was amazing. We spent pretty much the whole day there. I made some friends and can´t wait to see them again! While we were there we painted a dormitory. We also spent A LOT of time playing with the kids. I played a lot of soccer and basketball and also just goofed around with them as they laughed at my Spanish. I hope we spend a lot of time out there this summer.
Tonight we´re going back out to the stadium to feed the homeless. I´m really enjoying the work we´re doing there. I´m getting to know the people there and forming relationships and I always look forward to the next time we go.
Well, this room is FREEZING so I think i´ll go explore. I put pictures on facebook so check them out!
Oh btw my backpack is safe...
