Arrived!

I´m here in La Chorrera, sweating a ton and smiling because of the swarms of newborn kittens in the backyard.

Maru, my mom, is very friendly. We went to the grocery store and the clothes store (for the weekly raffle), and I was astonished at how low the prices are here for the same stuff. O´Neill shorts which are $30 in California are $3. It´s remarkable.

Apparently I will be eating chicken all the time, which I can deal with, but it´s weird.

Also, everyone knows everyone, seriously.

Love,
Laurel

Yay! I'm glad you're settling in, and I'm jealous of the good clothes prices! XD

Kittens! I'm glad things are going well so far.
And hopefully my letter will get there sometime soon.
Success?
