First Post in Country

So far so good. This is going to be short because it is costing money to be on the internet and my longer post is on my computer in my village. I am currently two weeks in and am loving it! The language is hard, especially because it is a totally different alphabet but it makes sense in the fact that each letter has a specific sound and it doesnt change. Unlike english, where an 'a' can sound 3 different ways, Armenia has a letter for each sound.

But that is language... my host family is really nice. I have a mother, father, brother and sister. My brother and sister are early teens and love to play cards. It works out well. I have been having a lot of down time in the afternoon but will meet people to study or go on short hikes. And hikes they are... being from Florida going to a mountainous region has been quite 'fun'. But oh well... its good for me.

I will post more later, as soon as I remember to bring my flash drive with me...

Love you all! Hope all is well in the States or wherever you are!

Hajo!
