So how 'rural' is your environment? How far away is the nearest city?
Do you have any chores to do where you live?
So how and what do you teach the children? Do you have a translater?

Between my last post and this one I found all my comments and they were a blessing to read!

Thanks for the questions Marijke I wouldn't really describe my environment as rural. I am on the edge of the city and surrounded by too many cars, people, and small plots of land for that. Near where I work there are some fields of bananas, coconuts, and I don't recognise what else. Its a bit more rural, but there is easy and constant access to carts and fairly well kept roads. I will try and put up some pictures soon to help you visualize.

Today was the first day I took the bus system from my new house alone. Usually my host sister or mom accompany me places. I took a bus to the market then another to MCC's office, which is the other side of Managua. The whole trip took about 1.5 hours since there was some traffic.
