Merry Christmas

Hello,

Its been a while, it seems like there´s always so much to do when I´m in town and never get to use the computer. I´m settling in my new home- I now have a concrete floor, and I bought a little stove top thing so I can start cooking for myself. I´m really excited about that, after finding a big bug in my beans a few weeks ago. Otherwise I´m not really doing too much- December is a relaxed month here, not much work getting done, but I´m meeting people, working on my Spanish and reading alot. I´m going to finally post some more photos, and I´ll write some more some other time. Hope everyone and their families has a wonderful Christmas and happy New Years :o) Oh and I have a new address if anyone´s interested its:

Christa Rosin
Peace Corps
A.P. #3
Somoto, Nicaragua

Adios!



Me with some coffee berries, out drying




The whole Agriculture volunteer group at the Swearing-In Ceremony in Managua



Our group from my training town, Santa Cruz




This is Mauda, the 4-year-old in my host family, she keeps life interesting





And finally, my (kind-of) dog, Peluche, who I´m renting for the two years, he´s pretty cute and I´ve started giving him baths with flea and tick shampoo

Hi Christa,

I just received my invitation to Nicaragua with PC. I'll be doing the TEFL program...I leave May 5 and begin service July 18....just trying to connect with people in the country and say hey. :) Hope you are enjoying today and I look forward to reading more about your adventures before I get there!

Kindly,
Sarah

Hi Christa,
Sorry it has taken me so long to finally come look at your website. I am staying home with a sick Ellianna today, so I have some free time while she rests. Those are some great pictures. Especially the scorpion one. :) We just started the second semester here and life is already busy. Are you feeling busy and useful? It sounds like you have a nice host family. Take care and keep posting what is going on in your journey.
Love,
Chad
