Its amazing to me how every single day I see a new place, new things, meet new people. I have been here about two weeks and I still have only seen a fraction of the city. The second week into school and things have settled down a little bit. It was pretty overwhelming at first but I've kind of found a routine in the chaos.
-There is no tax on anything, if it says its 34, you pay 34
-There are no laundromats, rather lavandarias where you take your clothes and come back and pick them up a few hours later, all washed and folded
-I've fallen in love with dulce de leche which is like a mix between caramel and peanut butter, therefore it could be extremely dangerous
-Everything is so, so much later here.
-Speed limits do not apply, I'm terrified every time I am in transit :|
Its so much different than what I am accustomed to, but I think its why I love it here so much- change is good.
The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.
-M. Scott Peck
