Humbling experience número uno - inability to communicate with people once I entered my transfer point in Bógota. I now realize just how much I've taken for granted my communication and people skills, because they're pretty much useless at this point... Hopefully that will take a turn for the better as my Spanish improves. I think I might be so tired right now because I spent all day trying incredibly hard to understand what everyone was telling me.
It was still a great day. Billy took me to the Scripture Union office, showed me around Lima a bit, gave me some orientation reading material, and I got to meet with Manuél, who I will probably be helping with the financials in the SU office. I also got a look at my tentative schedule, which has me leaving for the work sites in a couple days! So I apologize if I go abruptly silent for two weeks. Hopefully I'll get an opportunity to get to an internet cafe while I'm out there.
Ok. I lied about being too lazy to put up pics. You faithful readers deserve something exotic and something cute.

Most adorable little girl in history, Faith.
Hope you like the accents and such from this crazy Peruvian keyboard. ¿ñ°
