So much has happened so far- and I still can barely believe that I am actually here!!!!! My family is so loving and nice, and so is everyone else that I have met so far. I feel completely welcomed and totally at home. And let me just say- Colombia is the most beautiful country ever. The mountains are gorgeous and green, and there are spectacular views from everywhere! And coffee fields- lots and lots of coffee fields all mixed in with banana growing too. Overall, everything is spectacular. I have drank so much coffee (it's amazing) and eaten arepas, soups, and all kinds of Colombian foods. I will start school next week. The kids I have met so far have been so kind! Overall, I am thrilled to be here. Everything is so beautiful. Going on exchange has been, by far, the best decision I have ever made.
