Mbae´chapa! Hello!
Chererà Carlos! My name is Charles
Che aspirante de Cuerpo Pazpegua! I´m a Peace Corps Trainee!
Che Estado Unidogua! I am from the United States
Welcome to the amount of conversation that I can have with my host family in Guaranì. Haha good thing that i have a little spanish to fall back on. Not that my spanish is great though...haha. So far I am saying a few things and smiling a whole lot. I give a lot of thumbs up too...it is money.
Also, my name is (un)officially Carlos from henceforth, which is kind of fun. My host family is wonderful and are taking very good care of me! I got my first shot and my first killer bee sting the other day, so that was fun too. Three cows live in my yard, which is great, and i have a mango and a lime tree! mango season should peak around december...so good times are a´comin.
But for now, this internet is costing money, and I could type this out on my laptop and bring it in to the internet cafè and do this for much less.
Just because i´m in another country, doesn´t mean i´m still not cheap. haha.
much love.
Carlos.
