it´s been a while!

Hey! Sorry it´s been so long between updates. Things have been a little crazy busy here. It´s cool though because it´s a good kind of busy. We have passed the one month mark of langauge school! yay! I´m really amazed at how much I am learning and remembering. Sometimes I even catch myself thinking in this new language! It´s pretty awesome.

So yeah thanksgiving was yesterday. We took the day off of school and had a huge feast! When I say feast I mean so much food it was insane! It was all super good though and it was fun to be around friends and have a great time. I just can´t believe that we are now officially in the holiday season though! It seems like time is flying by! I´m lovin´ it though, and every day I am learning more and more.

whooo hooo!


Here's us having fun at the park the other day! Good times!

Well, it's the weekend! Aww yeah! Nothing really new to report here. Things are going great! I'm amazed at how much I can learn in one day about so many different things! Have a great day!

2 week anniversary!

Well, I have officially lived here for 2 weeks! It's kinda crazy...in a way it feels like I just got here yesterday, but it also feels like I've been here for much longer. We went to one of the many amazing museums that are near our apartment Sunday (for free!) and it was great. Today was the first day of a new adventure: Language School! It was pretty relaxed and not like any school or class I'd ever been in. I liked it a lot and I think it will help me learn a lot, so yay!

tuna pizza?! really?

Well we are settling into our apartment and things are going good. We start language school on Monday and I am looking forward to that! It will be fun to get to be a student again instead of a teacher! I am looking forward to actually understanding what the people around me are saying! Plus, there is a holiday on Thursday so that means no school! Whoo hooo!

Ok, so pretty sure there are definitely some interesting foods here, but I think the biggest stretch for me would be tuna pizza! Does that sound appetizing to anyone?! Although, I tried octopus the other day and I must say, it wasn't awful!

I hope things are going good with all of you!

the city...

We have finally arrived! We moved into our apartment yesterday and, oh yeah, it's pretty awesome! Today we went around the city and saw some major tourist sites and some other intersting things, and ate very yummy food! Things are going really good so far. Everyone that we've met has been really great and helpful. We are going to Ikea tomorrow, and I am pretty pumped about that! I will write more later!

getting closer...

Well I am spending my last few days in the states here in Michigan with friends and family. Things are going good, but the time is definitely flying by! I can't believe that I leave on Monday! God is so good, and He has provided in so many ways and proven Himself faithful to me so many times lately. What an awesome Father!

bustin' out!

Well we are officially done with our time here in Virginia! It's just crazy how the time has flown by! Tomorrow I will head back to Michigan for a few days, then it's off to begin my life in Europe! Could I be anymore excited?! I don't think so!
