one of the great things about it here, is that you really never know what is going to happen in a day or how you are going to get there...

typically we hitchhike and ride in the back of trucks ect. ( no need to worry, we are in groups with guys, and its a common thing here)
well. today we woke up early had breakfast, and made our way to the "magic sands beach" its very beautiful and the water is superr clear and the waves are the perfect height for swimming/ body surfing. after spending the morning there we walked to get frozen lemonade and snacks, after that we decided to find a way to the end of the world. the end of the world is a place to go cliff jumping.
as we started on the road we met a guy who worked for the city and had a huge truck, he told us they were just heading to the end of the world and we could all hop in. sooo about 15 of us jump in the back of the truck and we are on our way.
once we get there, its basically volcanic rock and lots of it.
we walked up a ways and saw where it was we were jumping from,
meanwhile chatting with a guy who was in the truck about YWAM and being a missionary ect. now the jump itself is about 30-40 feet depending on where you stand. and i knew if I thought about it i wouldnt be able to do it. therefore, i was one of the first ones to jump, (later to realize no one got a picture and i had to do it again.. ) SO we spent the day there, and it was crazy. After that the same guy came back and picked us all up, fitting 19 of us in the back of his truck.. yeah. and.. he brought snacks. :) he took us straight back to the university. and later tonight we went for dessert and a bit of browsing the shops.

just to give you a snapshot of a saturday around here. its great mostly because everyone is pretty much open to anything. really anything can happen. the next plans are for this beach called green sands, its apparently one of two beaches like that.and zip lining is also something, oh and snorkeling here is supposedly awesome as you can imagine. we have already seen turtles in the water. with us

whats good is the balance the weekend brings. we have a long week full of information and lectures. lots of it is really intense and draining ( in a good way) but nonetheless tiring, so when we get the chance to just have fun, its a blessing.

tuesday is the day we find out our outreach teams, now i cant even really say anything about where im going because i honestly dont know at this point..
which also is good!

love you all! hope winter is treating you well.
