I live up on a hill and there are farms of callaloo and fruit trees all around me. The country has had a terrible drought the last year so there are water shortages both for the resident homes and for farming. This last week prayers were answered and rain has been falling. When it rains, it pours. Its pretty funny, most everything stops when it rains, but the plants are happy and the people on the hill with the water catchment tanks are very happy.
My host family consists of a older couple (late 50s), their daughter and her two young kids. My host mom is a wonderful cook and if I weren’t walking so much I would be gaining some weight! They own a store which is the downstairs of our house and the daughter goes to college. I spend a lot of nights playing go fish and hanging out with the kids. They are pretty funny little kids curious about everything.
Here are some pictures of where I will be staying for about a month longer.
