Home

While celebrating my brother's wedding this past weekend, I had the opportunity to talk with family and friends that expressed appreciation for my blog. I soon realized I hadn't updated my whereabouts since my return. I arrived safely to the Akron, PA on July 18 and after a week of debriefing I flew home to Washington, Iowa on the 24th. I am happy to be home and have enjoyed getting reacquainted with family and friends. A couple of weddings and a road trip to Pennsylvania have helped provide such opportunities.

I miss different aspects of Bolivia such as: the people, food, developing my Spanish speaking skills and the market. However, being home is a wonderful feeling and I am thankful for the opportunity to say "Hello" again to persons I had missed. Thankfully they were just as excited to see me too :)

The month of August is passing rapidly and in about a week and a half--the 28th of August--I will be heading to Goshen College for my junior year. I want to thank all of you that have faithfully read my blog and for those who have supported me throughout this past year. Thank you so much for your prayers and for showing interest in my activities in Bolivia. God Bless.
