This is one of my favorite pictures ever. The kids here remind me why I'm here, and bring extra joy to my life.

Feeling: hope and happiness

This is the big mountain outside of La Paz from the air plane when we arrived in May

Feeling: Fianlly Real

This is a salty lake bed outside of Huari, another altiplano site, which is starting to fill in now that the rainy season has arrived.

Feeling: Awe

One of the hardest things about Peace Corps is constantly saying good bye to all of the great people you meet while you're here.

Feeling: Sad, awww
