It has been a while since I have been able to post anything just because of all the running around we have been doing, and also the fact that I don´t have my computer.
My first day as part of this program was meeting alot of the other volunteers which alot of them happend to be from Harvard...interesting bunch. Then we all flew down to Costa Rica and from there started a week of orientation.
The next few days we did lots of activities and took spanish classes and all types of stuff. One day though we went up to kind of a crazy guys farm up in the mountain. Where he had bannanas, coffee, and sugar cane! So there I am with some sugar cane in my mouth.
During orientation week I stayed with a host family. The host families house in the far right house in the picture. Really nice family with a little boy named Kelo and a son named Mario. Then my host parents were Mario and Yorleny. Really nice family. I plan on visiting them when I go back to Orosi with Julie.

Right now I am in Turialba, Costa Rica, and tomorrow I am going to my town, San Juaquin de Tuis. I should get in around 2:00 in the afternoon. I can´t wait, because then I can actually unpack and kind of get into a routine.
Well it has been good, until next time!DKW
