Week 3

So I’ve been in Namaacha for about three weeks now. Training has been good but hard. As I write this I am watching one of my new favorite novellas called Poder Paralelo. This week has flown by with good times and bad but that’s to be expected when training. Today has been one of the coldest days yet and it feels cold! It’s only around 19C but it feels like its 0. Not only was it freezing (it’s all relative!!!) but it also rained all day. We’ve had rain but it hasn’t been all day or very hard. All the roads that I walk on are dirt with many rocks so needless to say my feet were covered in mud. Because the roads are pretty much mountains and dirt it makes it very hard to climb up and down and I almost fell every step…especially going down the mountain.
We found out on Wednesday that we are going to have a Halloween party so Mrs. Howell may be an option (If I can find a costume at the market!). Since everyday is pretty much the same because of classes, it’s nice to have different things to look forward to.

I also took to naming all the animals in my house since they didn't have names. The cat is chocolate, the dogs are buster and bentley, and there is a gecko that comes out at night who i named bob. it's great because the kids in my house have taken to calling the animals by the names i gave them!!

Would love to write more but I have to clean my shoes…such fun!!! Miss everyone!!!
Love,
Ana
