So I got emergency transferred like a week and a half ago, so I am now in Bermejo, which is the southest part of all of Bolivia, so that is cool! I flew from Santa Cruz to Tarija, then took a three hour car ride to get here! Bermejo is super cool, but way different! I can see Argentina from my house. It gets so hot here, I literally almost died, and it is only going to get hotter. It rained pretty hard yesterday and is still sprinkling still today so it is alot cooler today, thank goodness. My companion´s name is Elder Mabeus, He is super good at baseball, he is going to BYU after to play. There are four small branches here, and four sets of missionaries. We live in a house-ish type thing that is three stories. We live on the third floor and other members live on the first and second floor. Spanish is coming along okay, hearing the different accent here I think helped me alot, so that is good. Some things in Spanish still confuse the crap out of me, so I still got super far to go. I am super grateful for time to study the scriptures, that is the thing that helps my Spanish the most! Something that I really appreciate is the Word of Wisdom, we are teaching this 18 year old kid that is struggling with drinking and doing drugs, but really wants to become better, so we have been really focusing on that this week. I hope I haven´t repeated anything.
