Almost October!

Hey everyone!

I cannot believe that tomorrow is October 1st.  It seems as though time is flying by!  Now that I am in a routine and my day is scheduled, the days just seem to fly by. 

These past three days were spent out at a camp with my students.  We were an hour and a half east of Coch in the mountains.  It was really cold, but the weather reminded me of being home in New England during the fall.  Although it was cold, it was nice to be out of the city and in the fresh air.  I spent one night on a mountain after a pretty intense hike with my students.  I enjoyed myself, but it was definitely hard to hike at such a high altitude!  I was sucking wind pretty hard. 

Since we had camp for the past few days, we have tomorrow off!  I am looking forward to a long weekend full of relaxation.  Some of the other teachers are going on a weekend trip, but I am too exhausted to go with them!  Not to mention I am sick of riding in a bus...

Otherwise, life is great here in Bolivia.  I feel as though this is home for now, and I am content with how things are going so far.  Of course I miss things about home...mostly food.  Just kidding, I miss family and friends as well!  But I know that I am here for a reason and that God wants me here, so everything will work out for the best.
