Well we made it safely to Bolivia last night! We were met at the airport by a conglomerate of people from the school which was nice, but pretty overwhelming for the first couple of minutes in Bolivia.
We met our two roommates at the airport. One of our roommates name is Julie, she is a fellow teacher at the school and is from Canada. Our other roommates name is Hadit and she is Bolivian and is taking classes at the University.
After being greeted at the airport, we headed to our home where we found our new rooms, the house dog Dulce, and got to know more about our roommates.
After hanging out, we went to a friends house for dinner. We had a delicious Bolivian Meal and it was fun to begin to meet people.
Today we went to a Market to get some fruits, vegetables and some other household items. The market was full of so many beautiful colors, a lot of different meat, lots of flowers, and a lot of different fruits an vegetables. Also from the market you could see the Magnificent Andes Mountains, which are so neat. We could see them as we flew into Cochabamba and we were in awe.
After the Market we came back and helped cut up some Zanahorias( carrots) for a soup we were going to have for lunch. It was a very delicious.
Tomorrow we will be going to church and after we will learn how to make another Bolivian dish!!
So far things are going well and I think I am going to like it here!
So for now, Adios! - Rachel
