Longing to go back in time...
I'm longing to go back in time as I remember bits and pieces of my exchange~what an adventure! :) I miss my host family, my friends, and the Argentinean lifestyle the most. It makes me long to go abroad again as soon as I can. I am pondering where I would like to go and what classes to take. I know whatever I choose it will be difficult academically and verbally, but totally worth it! I have talked some to my host family (LOS MORETTIS) , but really they are doing a much better job of keeping in touch. I can't WAIT until I can go back and visit with them! Paula is basically like my sister and I miss the long talks with her when we shared a room. There are also things about Argentina and Spanish culture that I miss the most. One thing is how people say hi to each other even though they may have never met before! That would only happen in the USA if you were being introduced to someone. I also miss the very loving way they greet friends, family, and even sometimes strangers. Always with a firm handshake, most of the time with a kiss on the cheek, and usually hugs for every friend that is present at any gathering or fiesta! :) So not only do I want to go back and visit Mendoza, Argentina or even study abroad again in South America, but ALSO, I really would love to spend some time living in South America and helping with kids especially in some of the poorer areas/countries. I just can't wait to see what God has in store for me! :D
