Hey guys!
It feels weird typing in English now that I've spent the last 24 hours talking in Spanish. Everything that goes through my head now is translated to my elemetary level Spanish.
Right now I'm at la Escuela Semillita and I thought I'd write a short blog to you guys before I get the chance to write in full at my ¨house¨.
Everything went well on my trip and plane ride was awesome. I met some really interesting people from Cuenca and will hopefully get the chance to visit them later during my stay here in Ecuador. Well I don´t want to write too much until later tonight, but I thought I´d let you all know that I´m doing very well and love the people that I´m staying with. So far it´s been phenomial, but there are sad/depressing things you see and it can break your heart to see some parts of Guayaquil that the normal tourist could never experience. Everyone I´ve met are nice, caring people. Overall it is a beautiful country and I know I´m going to enjoy my 2 months here very much. I just wish other people could witness such an amazing country like I am right now. Until later tonight...

hey from Tina
Hey Shir~ so great to hear from you, I'm sure you're experiencing a lot right now-- I know that when I would make trips to places like Albania, it was beautiful and heartbreaking because it's gorgeous there, but there is so much poverty and brokenness that we don't experience here at home. I pray you'll be a light for the Lord to everyone you meet! Hang in there as you settle in and have fun! Love you, T
