Semester 1- Report Card
We are 1/2 way through the school year, we did it! It is summer break- which is super weird- I still am confused about how come I didn't experience fall! We are headed home to Washington for nearly a month! We are excited to see family and friends and enjoy the snow, mountains and winter. It's been a pretty good few months. There have been challenges, particularly in the past week (endless phone calls with health insurance, a car that needs a TON of repairs and a dead phone) but as Rob pointed out, all of these things could have happened anywhere. Regardless of your knowledge of the language, the generosity and openness of the people and the quality of the air, living overseas can be exhausting. It's always tough to move somewhere new- navigating newness is always hard. The layer of a new culture and language just amplifies it.
