How the time flies by…
Today marks the start of week three in my new homeland of Mindo, I just celebrated my 2 year anniversary of being a college grad, yesterday marked my 9th month in Ecuador, and I am less than a month away from my 24th birthday. Life is good.
Mindo, ahh I don't know how to capture such beauty and peace into an e-mail besides…come visit me!!
Falling asleep to the pitter patter of soothing rain fall and waking up to the sweet chirps of the birds, life is peaceful. Although it is a touristy place known for it's hikes, waterfalls, butterflies, orchids, and bird watching there is a constant flow of gringos but that hasn't take away from the true sweetness of the people. I have been greeted with great love from the four Nuns that run the school I will be working in. Sister Judith a 70-something 5' ft (wide as she is tall) nun has already adopted me as her own. I finally feel as though I am where I am supposed to be. This is where I am needed and appreciated. We will be busy preparing everything this week because classes start Tuesday, April 1st.
Well that is the short and sweet update for now.
Much Love to you always.
Alicia
