March 10th-
Hey ya´ll! otra vez. So I didnt have much time last week, so i will speak a little bit more about stuff. :) My new area is 6 hours away from Chiclayo in a bus ride that is pretty much like driving up and down fairview canyon for 6 hours. It is good that I dont get carsick, I just wish that the other people didnt get carsick also...To describe my new area, it is like a very populate park city with the temperature of Las vegas in summer time. It is really really green here and almost every night it rains. Which I love! I kinda helps get rid of the smell of sweat. :) Last sunday it was raining so hard that our ward had less than half assistir. And for some reason I live on the fourth floor and a 5 story apartment building that nobody lives in...Sometimes the owner will sleep there on the 2nd floor but not much.
My new companion is Elder Quispe, he is one of the oldest missionarys in the mission, he has 26 years but only 16 months in the mission. He is from Perú also but is from Moquegua, it is close to chile. He is a really good companion. Also the other elders that are here in Jaen are really good also. One of them I had a writing class with at the University of Utah.
It is really good that I went and hiked Balance Rock with the broken foot, because now, my new area, is all hills! and I am hiking up and down multiple of them in church shoes, white shirt and tie...dope. The people here are really good and acceptive. Hoever they dont feed me that much here. I have a pensionista (the person that cooks for us) here also but she lives a hike away, but she is really good and nice. Today we went with her family to some place called Las Pirias (some town), and played volleyball and toke pictures. Just to let you guys know...my New pension has a scale, and I did gain weight in my last area, but I wont say how much.
Other than that I am still eating rice everyday, only now I eat it for breakfast too sometimes. And needless to say I am hiking a lot also. But things are really good.
This computer doesnt read my card to send new pictures, so here is a picture of me at a museum in Lambeyegue. maybe you have seen it already...sorry. But keep having fun and living life.
