3/12/18 - 10 Out of 10 Would Do It Again

This week was really solid. We have a baptism this week - please pray for Yuri!! Nothing too crazy happened. We went to the beach again and got a little lost so we went trailblazing thru a jungle and it was great. We found a horse and a watermelon patch and saw lots of animals. 10 out of 10 would do it again. 

Last week my dad asked me some questions. I thought others might be interested in the answers too so here they are: 

·         What time do you get up? We get up at 6:58 every day.

·         Do you exercise every day?  What do you do to exercise? yeah I'm starting to lift weights. I have a dumbbell but mostly I just use the 20 litro water boxes that the mission gives us.

·         What do you eat for breakfast and when? We live above a little breakfast shop and we eat sandwiches of avocado and quinoa and maca and tons of smoothies - usually around 7:30 and for like 15 minutes.

·         What do you eat for lunch and when? We eat at 1 and the food here in Peru, for the most part, is excellent. 

·         What do you eat for dinner and when? Around 10:30 at night and usually whatever we have lying around.

·         What is a typical day? We wake up and study, then work work work until 10 when we gotta be home, then shower and then wake up the next day and do it again.

·         What’s been the biggest surprise:

o   As a missionary? How much profound joy you can feel serving the Lord and other people.

o   Living in Peru? Peru is crazy hahahaha  I love it though.

o   Having a companion 24/7? Honestly I don't remember what it's like to be alone. I can't really answer this lol.

o   Living outside the USA? Man I'm just so grateful to live in the USA! We are all wayy more blessed than you think!

I love you all! Keep up the hard work and write me! I love you all!!!

Love,
