I made it to my site in one piece. So far, so good. I have my first day of ´work´ tomorrow. (Or should I say volunteering?) Hopefully I will be given something to do and won´t find myself sitting around twiddling my thumbs. I guess I could always study my Spanish-English dictionary.
I still can´t believe how beautiful this country is. After living at 10,000 feet near an active volcano during training, I didn´t think I would be lucky enough to have such beautiful scenery at my site. Fortunately, I was wrong. Instead of the snow capped mountains of Cayambe, I´m now blessed with the green flora filled moutains of Loja. B-e-a-utiful!
I have a new address now, too. The old one goes to the Peace Corps office and I will only be traveling there 2-3 times per year so please use this one from now on to send me love:
Lindsay Toole
Casilla 11-01-216
Loja Loja, Ecuador
South America
Remember: Nothing over 2 kilos (4.4 pounds), padded envelope and no declared value.
P.S.- If you see my mom please tell her I´m safe, happy and healthy. And give her a hug for me.
