Bug bites, bathrooms, over eating and long trips. So there are a few things that have been stretching me out of my comfortable life, but it is somewhat enjoyable I must admit.
I have discovered that my least favorite thing ever is itchy bug bites. I have nearly forgotten what a real bathroom looks like and toilet seat.. what is that? I have spent at least a good 4 hours in the back of packed truck traveling from village to village on bumpy, windy roads through the mountains and discovered a new condition of car sickness.
But all this combined could never keep me from being overjoyed with where I am. My host family is the best ever
and the country could not be any more beautiful. There are no city lights to dim the stars and the morning fog is breath taking.
The people in the villages have little to offer, yet they will give it all without hesitation. I have eaten more food here each meal to last me for the rest of the trip and they still have more food ready for us. There is so much that I have learned about service from all the wonderful people I have met and I hope that when I leave I will give as gratefully as I have been given to.
