Hola everybody from La Republica Dominicana!
Sorry if there are a lot of spelling errors on here but this computer isn´t all that good haha. I love the people here! It´s so hot and humid! I don´t speak Spanish at all and neither do the Dominicans haha. I have no idea what they are saying haha. They are so nice. I´m in Los Tres Brazos a part of Santo Domingo Este. Everybody here is crazy haha. There are basically no laws so it´s just straight up chaos haha. I love the people and I still gotta get used to eating the same food every day haha. Rice. Beans. Meat. Gotta Love the DR!

Comments from other emails:
I´m in Los Tres Brazos! The Three Arms…the biggest area of anywhere in Santo Domingo and we walk all day and I´m dead tired everyday haha.
I love the people here! I don´t speak their language or anything and I don´t understand them 95% of the time but they are so loving. Our biggest problem in this country is that nobody gets married. They all believe in Jesus and God but never wanna get married. We are constantly running around and have so many investigators!
My companion is super cool! He´s from Texas and his name is Elder Esserine. He used to play the trombone and loves fishing and high adventure. He´s been here for 2 months but got the gift of tongues in the CCM. This guy is crazy good at Spanish!
It´s so hot here! Sun hardly comes out and it pours all the time. I just keep smiling and saying hi to people. They seem to like it.
I´m also using alot of the stickers haha. Everybody loves stickers! We teach an english class on Friday´s and this week we had 25 people attend! New record!
My tag wore off from the extreme climate change haha.
There is trash everywhere here! I see dogs and cats everywhere! Dead and alive but just barely. The poverty here is insane!
Coldest showers I´ve ever taken and the facet doesn't work so we have to use the droplets that come out of the faucet.
It smells so much like gas here! Everyone here uses propane instead of gas and it smells so bad.
There´s no rules of the road here so if you look it up, Dominican´s are the worst drivers in the world. They pack us in cars like sardines.
It´s insane here and you never get a break not even on P days. We eat the same food everyday and I´m kind of already sick of rice haha.
I love the people here so much. They say that I was born old. They also call me Elder Stewart Little haha. They said I look like a movie star and I said Tom Cruise and they said ya haha.
