Whitney's in Peru! 7/9/2013

Hey mamì! How are you? Did you chew pat out? That sounds like a fun forth of July. Hermana Kimball, Hermana Batman and I are the only gringas( white girls) in our mission. We were sad that we didn`t do anything to celebrate the 4th. All is great here. It`s a little bit hard because things are way different and funcion way different than my other mission but I shouldn`t compare. I love it here. We walk everywhere unless we take a moto which is a little cart attached to a motorcycle but it costs money. Its very dusty because there aren't roads and all of the houses are made out of cement or bricks with mudd as the cement. It looks ancient. We live in a small room with a small bathroom. Our pensionista mam'i yoavani is so sweet and makes really good food and my garments have never been so white. She also irons everything! I`m spoiled I know. There is a recent convert here that says that went Hermana Kimball and I came we answered his dreams and prayers because she was wearing clothes that he saw in a dream and he always prayed for someone that can play the piano ha ha so I have to play the piano every Sunday because no one knows how . I played this Sunday and it was horrible ha ha. So I am trying very hard to learn alot because I am co-training with Hermana San Roman because hna. Kimball is new and Hna. San Roman does all of the exchanges here with the hermanas so I have to train her when Hna San Roman isn`t around. It scares me. The work is very different here. Everything is with the Bible and my bible knowledge isn`t that great but I'm learning. How are you? How is the family? Whats going on with Pat?

Whitney's In Peru!!!

Its wonderful. I don´t have much time today but I will tell you about my experience. I came with Elder Harris friday and we traveled together to Dallas and there I flew with one of the Hermanas that was in my district in the MTC and we got in Lima at 2-00 in the morning and some man picked us up in the tiniest car and we went in the crazy traffic to a hotel in Lima and it was nice. The next morning we didn´t know what was going on but someone came for us and took us to the airport and I came to Chiclayo where my Presidente Risso and his wife picked me up and then I met my companion and since we have been doing missionary work. Lots of walking in dust with a bunch of dogs everywhere and they are some of the ugliest dogs I have ever seen. The food is really good. We have a pensionista and we go to her house every day and eat with her for every meal. We always eats 2 lunches and its huge! There is a man in our ward that looks just like Luke Stevens ha ha. They are very kind and sweet. Today we ate at the Mission Presidents home which was really yummy ceviche! I already feel so close to them they are like second parents
