My Life In Pieces

Warning, none of these pictures were taken by me, simply stole them from my killer exchange student frends:)

 This is a traditional Santa Cruz dress called Tipoi, it was worn way back when by all the Cambas, since i am a little Cambita our school made us wear them for the feria we had for the day of Santa Cruz!
 Cabanas were made in the middle of the school for the feria, this is me during my night classes on fridays, with my friday unifrom:)
 Cake here is a huge and important thing for everyone on their Birthdays. this is me with Charlotte from Belgium and Issac from NY we ate the cake and it turned our mouthes black...exchange student fail!!!!!
 My Host dad, me, my host mom and my Host Brother all went to a small town to do some volunteer work with Rotary, we stopped for some Jugo and took a picture:)
 We are exchange students, its what we do. Putting a bowl of ice in front of us eventually leads to an ice war which results in water wars which escalates into a full on cake war!...I lost
 Santa Cruz de la Sierra exchange students:) all in the beautiful mountains near Conception for our first Rotary trip.
 My grad class, yes we all have the same class together, in the same room, at the same time, there is around 70 of us, there are lots of people missing.
 This is the sad reality of what people outside of the City live in.
 Proud to be an exchange student!!!!! living life in the fast lane, it leads us to the top of a beautiful mountain where we can feel on top of the world.


 Flora and I in our promo monday uniforms with the Santa Cruz flag ready to get our defiller on!
 Baking Party at my house, Hailey (Wisconsin USA), Sara (New York USA), me, Mathilde (france) and Charlotte( Belgium), we all missed things so we went to my house and had a running around, party filled, baking good ol time.
I feel bad for my family and friends, my Best friend sent me this picture after a skype sesh, this apparently what people at home see when skyping with me...weoo. goooo bolivian Internet connection!

This is my life here, not better, nor worse than  it was back home, its just different. it has its ups and downs but that is what makes it so exciting. Everything is totally random, mostly because i dont know what is going on, but awesome people, friends and family both near and far are helping me make the most of this life her, its my life in pieces!
