Okay, so yesterday is over and today is a new day! This morning, on our way out of the house we saw some ducks mating – that was interesting. Anyway, it’s only morning. I’m sure I’ll have more to say later.

After being a little sick to my stomach and experiencing that whole ordeal without being able to just drop toilet paper into the toilet – I bounced right back. I’m now eating normal food after the treat of only being able to eat boiled potatoes and bananas. My new found friend, Sabrina, gave me a “have a good day” card because of yesterday, which was really sweet and amazing. It was in Spanish, too!
Now that I’m looking at yesterday and today with a renewed sense of positivity, I shall discuss our discussion! It was absolutely horrendous to find out that the Dominican culture revolves around a system of indirect communication. Basically, yes often means no, and you never say exactly what you want. This is great, considering I had just started coming to terms with direct communication! FML. Anyway, that’ll be a fun challenge.
Tomorrow we get the day off! Talk to you later J
