I made it!

Just wanted to write a quick note saying I made it just fine. The trip was a little stressful due to a delay that left me running for my next flight, but all ended well. I woke up to a lovely Guatemalan morning, it's cloudy, humid and actually very comfortable. The other students seem very nice so far, and I get to meet my host family in less than an hour. I found out they have two young kids, which should be fun. We had a very informal orientation this morning, and I'm feeling pretty relaxed about navigating life around here. However I might feel differently after my first public transportation experience. The food has also been great, and theres an avocado tree in the back garden! We start classes officially tomorrow, and it looks like I'll be studying one on one or with only one other student. The individual attention is pretty impressive, and we get to take lots of field trips! Anyway, thats about all for now. I'll be updating often though. Hope you're all doing well, and thanks for keeping up with me!
