So I received mixed reviews about my last post, some people appreciated my attempts at humor and others thought I was miserable; so I wanted to dispel some rumors. I'm doing really well here. The last post was just me poking fun at VDF and my situation, mostly the contrast between where I thought I was going to be and my actual reality. There is something to be said for the physical place itself, though. It has a strange beauty to it, the landscapes are barren and moon-like at times, but I've come to appreciate them as time passes, and even more as I pass by them on a bus out of VDF (it's probably those types of jabs that confuse people).
But regardless of the physical place, I can't take anything away from the people who inhabit this place. They are unconditionally kind and willing to go far out of their way in order to make you feel comfortable and welcome (as you'll see later). So I wanted to make sure everyone knew that. I'm doing well, enjoying my time, learning Spanish and traveling...a lot. Speaking of....
