This is going to be quick because we only have a few more minutes on the internet here at the school, but I AM HERE!!! I will write more when I have internet at the apartment.
We have been here for a few days but have learned SO MUCH. For example, I can count to ten and have ridden (rode?) the metro several times. We have eaten some fun foods and walked a lot around our area of the city.
It is definitely different here. It's been challenging being the one not to know the language. I feel illiterate because I cannot read the signs yet; however, I am learning the alphabet quickly (I think!?)
We are all tired because there has been a lot to do, but it feels better each day to get adjusted more and more. We have a lot to learn though.
I will hopefully put a few pictures up soon and write more in detail when I get settled in better, but I am already very thankful for this experience.
I LOVE YOU all very much and appreciate you keeping up with me.

It looks just beautiful there. I am so glad things are going well and that you are enjoying everything so far. It is going to be such an incredible experience! I have enjoyed looking at all your pictures on here and facebook thus far. I can't wait to hear about how the teaching is going!
