Day 1

Not even sure where to begin...

I guess first of all, I LOVE IT here. Seriously. To you people who haven't traveled to a country like this, I'll try to explain it. Electricity cuts out a couple times a day. Hot water is limited. Internet access is limited. Laws are merely guidelines and don't really need to be followed to the book. There are absolutely no traffic laws and stop lights might as well be Christmas decorations or something. Airport security is a joke, because people walked through the metal detectors with purses and bags, and even though the red lights would flash, the security guard was too busy hitting on the girl who was supposed to be watching the x-ray machine.

Ya, doesn't sound very appealing, but the food and scenery and culture definitely make it 100% worth it. Breakfast may have been one of the best meals I've ever eaten. I should have taken a picture, but was too busy inhaling everything around me. Next time I go I'll take a picture. The scenery is amazing. Mountains everywhere, and the roads are all constantly winding up and down the mountain sides. It's a bit hard to enjoy it though, because roads are usually as wide as 1 lane in the U.S. and people don't follow any rules.

I'm exhausted from the Jetlag, so I'll have to update more tomorrow. I tried to add some pictures, but after waiting 20 minutes for 1 picture to upload, it says 5% complete. You guys aren't that important. Pictures coming tomorrow night when I move in to LAU.
