( 8:46 PM ) shut up christine
hello from San Ignacio, Belize
Lo and I share a little two room house with three other girls. It's cute and comfortable
we have chickens in our backyard and a field behind the house where we watch boys play soccer
they are teaching me how to cook
Life is good.
In Belize they speak English and use US currency, prices are kinda high tho, I paid $5US for a gallon of juice.
my brain is still trying to get used to everything,
like the other day we rode in the back of a pickup truck to a small village where we met up with a Mayan healer, she prayed over us and we picked different flowers and leaves off bushes and crushed them in water
and next thing I know, I am stripping down, kneeling in a small dark thatched-roof hut next to a completely naked chick and we are pouring the herbal bath over our heads, we are naked and covered in leaves...
and I have to stop myself and think IS THIS REALLY HAPPENING?
anyway
right now Loralei is sitting across from me at this internet cafe, and I'm thinking wow Loralei and I have been through a lot together over the years...
she was the one who walked me to the bathroom after I pooped diarrhea on the slide in second grade...
and she is still my friend after all these years...
and we actually made it here
and that makes me happy
peace out
