Hot sauce and recycling in the same place.

They fed us Subway yesterday at the school during our orientation and the served the potato chips with HOT SAUCE!

The view from where I live

Where I live!!

One of the buildings at the Tec. Beautiful school.

Today wasn't too interesting but I did get some pictures. One day I will take pictures of people! haha. I am meeting a lot of really kind, wonderful friends from all over. I'm learning that kissing once on the cheek is a really sweet gesture (in Spain they "kiss" you twice). And that people want to talk to you even if your Spanish is bad. It forces me to be better. Actually, it may be reinforcing my mistakes but I'm getting practice in. Hopefully someone will correct me somewhere down the line.

My roommate and I are also getting used to:
1. dogs barking all night
2. a man selling and yelling "tamales" at 7 in the morning-loudly. And roosters. But they don't yell things.
3. crowded buses
4. being stared at
5. brushing our teeth via water bottle
6. rarely understanding what people are saying
7. eating the best food we've ever had

 They recycle in Mexico. I think I'm going to like it here.

8. becoming friends with some of the most kind and most humble people in the world.
