Here are some pictures from Nicaragua!
Our group at the beach of Poneloya from left: Alex, Daniel, John, Hannah C, Evan, and Hannah P next to me in the front.
At a beauty pageant at UNAN the contestants needed to make their own outfit that represented something important to Nicaragua.
Our patio at my host family's house - with my freshly washed clothes hanging up! :)

My first Sunday here was my "nephew" Alejandro's birthday, and we took pictures at the church. They sang to him during the service, but it's a small church with only 40ish people. The girl is a "cousin" who was actually named after one of the Dordt students last year - Genesis Nadji.
Just learned you had a blog and I'm very excited to keep up with your adventure in Nicaragua through it! I'm very fond of Nicaragua, having had 4 work trips there... it's one of my favorites for adventurous side-trips too! It's very interesting reading about your daily life and how you're adjusting to living in a new culture! Share what you can, when you can!
