Here i am in belize with two extreamly dedicated peace corps missionaries. JK. they really aren't that dedicated- but they do their jobs. I love being here. Its a poor little village they live in, but they managed to get the biggest house on the block for 200 belize a month. Ash had talked about how nice it was, and so naturaly i was surprized to actually see what it was. It is a house made of wood planks sitting on cement blocks. I honestly didn't think it was that great until i went with ash to see her old place that she was staying at with her host family. It was insainly teeney and had the worst little girl in it. Then i realized what a haven their new home is. i love it now- its the best house i've seen here, and am so happy to be staying with them there and not at that awful house with that awful little girl in it. (She touches you all over your whole body and wont stop.) ha. Ash and todd are heros for staying there for 2 months. we should give them a trophy.
I am really so glad i get to hang out with them and see what their lifes are like here. its alot different then you imagine it is. But its really good. They make fun of themselves all the time, but if you look at it from an outsiders perspective, they are doing something quite amazing. even if its different from what they thought, and they might not be actually helping anyone, (kidding) they are still learning a lot. its good.

Hi Sara!
It is cool to hear your perspective of what Todd and Ash Bash are doing. Are you going to stay with them the rest of the time? Keep us updated!
Love you
he he he. I like the image of that annoying little unkept girl trying to touch you. I can see Ash putting up with it and just laughing at it too. That makes me happy. NOw that I think of it, why didn't you joing the peace corps? What say you?
