Very frustrating but now have the capability of texting through an app, email, skype, facetime, etc all from my phone in the house as well as laptop and phone access for everyone else.
Named the network "Frustrating" appropriately enough

Finally Arrived
After flying for 24 hours, dealing with a near customs disaster(customs threw away our customs papers for about 10 of us), sleep deprivation, we finally made it to our home in Belo Horizonte, Brazil...or should I say mansion. Pictures are soon to come after wireless internet is made available(landline only right now) along with hopefully detailed stories of the trip down here.
We met our CO Brazil staff today and had our first meal together as a team. Already, I am experiencing the shock of being without internet or phone technologies at my fingertips whenever I please, the helplessness of actually being a foreigner and unable to understand any words spoken around me, and just the poverty of the city. I am rooming with 7 other guys in one small room so The summer will be a challenge for certain. Prayers needed!
Write again soon!

I am excited to leave in 9 days!!!! I thought that this blog would be a better conduit of communication for the summer rather than trying to send emails to everyone and others I don't have addresses for! Please share this with others! Thank you all who are supporting me in prayer and/or financial means! It means so much to me! I hope to stay in contact with all of you consistently throughout the summer.
