Roatan!!!!

Greetings all!

I´m sitting about 3 yards from the Carribean Sea... Yesterday, cocounuts fell on the beach so we picked them up, and got a guy to cut them open for us. The water is PERFECT temperature and today I went snorkling for the first time...

Basically, I´m living in a tropical paradise at a very cheap price. It´s hot here, but it´s nice because I can jump in the Carribean anytime I want.

I am having a lot of fun here relaxing, but still adjusting to the ¨culture shock¨even though I am in the same country. Everything is so toursity here... Everyone speaks English... The community in Esperanza is non-existent here... People are always busy... Everything is expensive according to Honduran standards and everything is a luxury... After living so simply for amonth, it just in a way, slightly disgusts me. I don´t need any of this stuff... And, I really miss my host family a lot.... It´s so weird that I won´t be going back to them after this weekend...

But despite the culture shock and missing the Morale´s I´m having fun... I´m thankful to be here and I´m glad I came here before returning to the states... It´s helping me ease my way into going back home...

Anddd.... The next few days will be interesting with the elections going on... No one freak out, I´ll be safe... I´m not even on the mainland, I´m on a Island that is full of toursity things... And Hondurans love Americans, minus the president who everyone hates...

Anyways, just wanted everyone to know I´m still alive...

PEACE
