Estoy aquí finalmente! I arrived this morning around 8am with my group in Asunción! The Flight was long and uncomfortable, but we made it and I'm really happy about that. We got our visas upon arrival, and went through customs (which was a breeze) and then waited for the german/Denmark group to arrive. Once we met up, we got on a bus and drove to a very big nice hotel in Asunción. We had a Paraguayan lunch that consisted of a plant root, a corn casserole type dish, rice, salad, and potatoes. Then there was sizzling meat platters placed by groups of us and we ate that. There was so much meat, and it was a little to well cooked for me, but it was still delicioso! They tren served a dessert that I think was flan or something like it. Every thing was really great. We haven't done anything really at orientation here but the Italians and Belgian group just got here so we are starting more activities at 5. My host family will pick me up tomorrow morning (which I CAN'T wait for) I'm so so excited about that. Keep checking in! Hasta luego.
Emma, I am so happy for you on this great adventure! You are absolutely right that it will be over before you know it. I hope you enjoy every single moment! Keep posting!
