I love that I have such an awesome team. I love that these girls have become some of my best friends. I love that we are all so real with each other.

I love riding the public bus.

I love that iced coffee is such a treat now.

We eat peanut butter and honey on everything.

I love cold showers because they have made me thankful for the hot ones we all take for granted at home.

Killing the chicken that we ate for lunch and cooking all of our meals over the fire in the village.

Learning to make flour tortillas.

Milk comes in a bag.

Playing in the rain.

Drinking chamomile tea every night before bed. I actually prefer my tent here to a room. 

Haircuts are a great form of entertainment.

Being the definition of a missionary in a long skirt, t-shirt, flip-flops, water bottle and bible. 

Waiting out the rain because Hondurans think everything will make them sick.

Baleadas- homemade tortillas, refried beans, platano’s, avocado, cheese, and

montequilla. BEST meal ever.

Hondurans eat montequilla on everything from pancakes to platano’s. At first I thought it was so gross but now I love it.

Platano chips are yummy.

Local honey in a recycled coke bottle.

Bucket showers for the first time in Teupasenti. 

We are gringos; everywhere we go we hear “Gringo, gringo, gringo.”

It really doesn’t matter what the North Americans say they just want to look at you kind of like we are a circus.

No one else has a clean standard like Americans. Bugs used to gross me out but now they are a part of every part of my life: meals, showers, everything..

I have officially trained myself not to flush toilet paper but most of the time we don’t have it anyways.

The only time any doors are closed is when it’s raining or we are sleeping. So now I am allowed to live like I was raised in a barn.

Everyday I have a new bug bite.

Cheka- leke is Spanish for okee-dokee.

I’m more excited to come back here and than to go to Thailand at the moment.”
