Gracias a Dios Por Arroz


In September I went to a birthday party for a one year old who was born the day after I arrived in site.



The classic Panamanian birthday meal; arroz con pollo. Delicious!


I made a list of some of the things I found this month with mold on them. I just don’t know how to express that mold attacks truly everything here. Things with mold on them; Inside of my stainless steel water bottle, the stickers on the outside of my water bottle, the rubber soles of brand new Chacos, money (yes, US legal tender is molding), any and all articles of clothing, books, my plastic dry bag, Tylenol (I opened an individual pill packet and the pill had blue spots of mold all over it), my headphones, my hammer, and the tape I put on the handle of my machete. I’m not exaggerating when I say everything molds.

Below are some pictures of some toucans I saw eating fruit off a tree right outside my house.
