I have arrived!

I arrived in Haiti about 24 hours ago. It was a long and overwhelming day but last night I jumped right into the fun of getting to know some of the other Americans over dinner. We took a tap tap (Haitian taxi) over to a restaurant with air conditioning which was a nice break from the heat. Today has been more settling in and getting to know the others here.  It's nice to have the weekend to get settled before the craziness of the school week.

Not going to lie, there have been many moments with the question, "what have I done?" and "Can I really do this for a whole year?".  Well, what I have done is follow Jesus when He said go and no, I can't do this... Not without Him.   So I know this will be a year of growth and dependence on Him which is exciting and scary at the same time.  As I look out at the view of the Caribbean Sea out my window, it's still surreal that this is home now.
