In transtiting to living Nica style, I notice that I have some bad days and some good days. Some days the children I live with are more bearable than other days; sometimes then food taste worse, sometimes better. Ocassionally, I am in a better mood and more optimistic, other times not.
Luckily for me the last couple of days have been good days. I made some friends and even got to watch a movie with one of them. I have been able to find peace in my chaotic home, and I have ended the busy days feeling satified and proud.
Maybe I am finally finishing this terrible adjustment process. I am loving the food, accepting the people, and pushing out of my mind the things that drive me crazy (like the cat calls). I will not lie, most days I am still reminded of how much easier things would be if I was home, but I am counting the blessings and opportunities that I am having here.
I am still not sure I am in love with everything Nicaragua, but I am accepting it! Things are looking up.
