Tomorrow I’m off to the jungle to live with an Ecuadorian family for two weeks! I’m nervous about this for multiple reasons, 1. I have to speak Spanish the whole time, 2. The possible eating of strange food and/or possible sickness, 3. The heat! and bugs, 4. The mom is a new believer and I [...]
All because of you, I am.
