First week. It is so hard to
explain all of it, there is so much. My Latino companion's name is elder Olmedo and he is from Lima Peru. Along with Stringham, who is my USA companion, we study in a North American district and we do everything
else with our Latin companions. There are a lot of different rules here and it is hard to get used to. It is all in Spanish, but I have some good
teachers. I am learning a lot and I am having a lot of fun. Some things really get on my nerves but besides that its great. The food is good.
but it is hit and miss. It is hard to adjust to the different styles of
cooking here, but its fine. I had some sickness earlier this week but it
is all gone now. We play soccer for a whole hour everyday! Right after
breakfast we just go out to the giant AstroTurf field and play soccer. It is great I score goals like I'm messi hahah. Today was our first P day
and it was great to go to the temple and do a session in Spanish. They
gave us translators that also had Quechea and Aymara translations on it
so I was flipping back and forth between the three and it was
interesting to hear the differences. A few guys in my room got their
endowments today as well. and that was a cool experience to share with
them. We went to a church store afterwards and I bought a tie with a
llama on it. Its hard to calculate the differences in the money. I am
exited for next P day so I can buy a soccer jersey. Everything is going
well and I am having fun. I do miss home, but its nothing I can't
handle. The city is crazy and I thought I was going to be hit by a car
when I was walking to the temple today, but it was great I am exited to
be able to understand all that is said by the people in Peru.
¡la iglesia es verdadera!
