In My Training Town

Arrived safely to my training town, about 30km south of Managua. My host family is very nice and patient with me. I'm their 8th volunteer, so they definitely know what they're doing. I have a mom, grandma and sister who is 17 years old. My town is small, but the infrastructure is better than I was expecting. There is running water most all the time except for after 6pm. We have electricity, a tv, radio, house phone and car (though some of those are luxuries specific to my host family). I also have my own bedroom and bathroom. Peace Corps is definitely taking care of us. Everything is very well planned our and organized. There are three other volunteers in my town who are all great and really fun. I have to get back home for lunch. Lots of rice and beans and fresh fruit, I love it!
