Training!!!

Kaitlyn and I have finally made it through the week of boring orientations, both in Washington DC and in Nicaragua´s capital city of Managua. We are now in our training towns, living with seperate host families in the department of Masaya, which is about an hour south of Managua. Kaitlyn is in a bigger town while I´m in a tiny pueblo. Both of our families are extremely friendly and even more patient with our language abilities. We´re both finding that we are picking up Spanish quickly, although it will be a long three months of hard work until we gain the proficiency we´ll need to work in our sites. The days are crammed with language training, all in Spanish of course. Time is running out on our computers so we´ll post more info soon! Although this is all really exciting, we still miss everybody!
