The past few days, I was at Lajo Yajoa on an end-of-semester retreat. Yesterday we went to this waterfall park. I jumped off the rocky riverbank like 25 feet into the water, it was fun. So much playing around in the water and doing jumps. It was beautiful. I also kayaked with Sylvi really far on the Lake. Ate great fish. Had some great times with my fellow students, who turned out to be a pretty neat bunch.
I guess this is my last post here in Honduras. If you're still reading, thanks, and I hope we can talk when I get back stateside.

I guess this is my last post here in Honduras. If you're still reading, thanks, and I hope we can talk when I get back stateside.
Some things I like about Honduras:
- how people point with their lips
- exchanging "buenas!" with strangers
- putting drinks in bags instead of bottles
- men dress well and wear nice shoes
- the abundance of cheese
- how oranges are peeled for you and served with salt
- fake kiss-on-the-cheek greetings
- honey "pura" on crepe-like pankekes
- public space and forced personal interaction
- doorway curtains
- crochet toilet-seat covers
- pulperias
- Spanish is a more expressive language
- how economics forces people to be easier on the environment
- public transportation
- Latino Christian music
- gringas, baleadas, licuados, Penguinos
- flavor and fat in food
- internet cafes
Cuidase.
