Hello friends and family!
This week has been a wild one. Long story short, my comp and I almost got in a horrible situation this week because our area is super dangerous at night, so we are moving houses to live in a safer area - que bendicion! So we had another ¨fake pday¨ today because we had to pack up our apartment, and until we can move in to our new apartment, we are staying with other hnas in a MUCH safer and nicer area.
Things I´ve learned about la vida Quiteña-
- The safest place to walk at night is, ironically, in the middle of the street...
- Liquid jello is a normal thing to drink here
- Graffiti is everywhere, and most of it is of cupcakes and words in English spelled incorrectly
Highlights-
-. Saw the PROPHET! It was incredible to see him so close in person. He spoke to the people here in Spanish! It was such an amazing experience for the people here to hear the prophet speak to them in their native language. Although I couldn´t understand all of it, I could feel so strongly of the love that not only the Prophet has for the people here, but also the love the Lord has for the people here. It definitely gave me a lot of motivation to learn the language, and this week I have learned some Quechua words and it´s gotten a lot better!
- BOUGHT MY FIRST TASER. That´s right, my comp and I bought tasers after our scary incident haha and now we feel a lot safer.
- Finally got adjusted to the altitude! Haha I almost have passed out or thrown up in the street like a million times since I got here but I´m chillin now.
I don´t have much time, but I love you all lots! Don´t forget to pray and read your scriptures!
Con mucho amor,
Hermana Harris
