Bienvenidos a Puebla

---

Hi Everyone,
The travel blog is back! I just made it to Puebla and am started to get settled in. Thankfully my spanish is coming back very quickly. I made it after one bus to Chicago, a flight to Monterrey then to Mexico DF. In Mexico Fernanda came to get me at the airport and we then took a bus to Puebla where I found my new home. I have what is basically one room with bedroom and bath, and a wall dividing the two. It is very nice though. The city is pretty big and I am a bit intimidated still, hopefully that will change soon. Yesterday I went around and got to know the city ( a bit) and bought a few necessities. I haven't gotten sick yet and have been eating some great food! So far mostly tacos 😊 The water purifier I have seems to be working great, I guess the results still remain to be seen.. Today I will begin the quest for a job, so wish me luck! So far I am having a great time and know it will only get better. I will try and update this blog periodically and keep you informed. Otherwise if you have skype, I will try and connect on Sundays to catch up with you all!

Love
Jake

Boarding the bus
The overnight bus to Chicago before my flight on tuesday.

Chicago
I went with my friend Scott for a brief tour of Chicago before I left for Puebla.

My room
Pretty basic accommodations but pretty much exactly what I need. So far I haven't seen anyone else in the other 20 rooms. I think this will change once school starts.

The other part
The shower, toilet and sink are all in one line. I have to sit sideways to use the toilet or else I hit my knees on the wall haha.
