Host Stay in Santa Cruz

On the left is a picture of my host mom Doña Nati. I hope to get a picture of my two brothers when they are both around.

(Above picture) The door on the far left opens to my room and one of my brothers has the room on the far right. The other brother generously moved out of his room and shares with Doña Nati so I could have my own room. They are very hospitable and I am very thankful.

The picture above is of our dining room and through the door is the kitchen. My host mother is an excellent cook and I have been spoiled with delicious food for the past couple of weeks.



The pictures below depict the courtyard and were taken from the door of my room. This is where we do our laundry and where they raise their chickens. I am so thankful for my host family here in Santa Cruz. They have been so hospitable and have made my transition into the Bolivian culture much easier. They are truely a blessing to me.
