- Bedtime is 5 or 6 am and breakfast is at 1 or 2 pm.
- you're sweating pretty constantly
- you hear english and italian more than you hear spanish being spoken
- you are paying crazy amounts of money for food at the supermarket
- everywhere you look there's an outdoor pool
- house music can be heard at all hours of day and night
- in one night you've already seen more flesh revealed than in the whole year
- you've already seen a beautiful sunset
it's good to be back! :-) especially as i'm living with Bruce and Helen, two fantastic friends in a lovely house. I spent yesterday chilling, exploring a little, finding the beach and supermarket and meeting the team out here. There's a short term team of 6 people from northern ireland, the guys that live here all year round and 5 others doing what i'm doing - here from anywhere between a month to 3 months. it's good to be back in Spain, even if it is so different to the mainland... coffee, coconut yoghurts and driving on the right have already been appreciated. and it's good to hear people speaking spanish again, although don't think i'll get loads of chances to speak as our work is with mainly english people in the very touristy area of San Antonio where nearly every single building is a bar or club and drug dealers literally line the streets.
I relalise i haven't explained exactly what our 'work' is. But i will leave that for another day when i have time to describe properly and when i've got into the swing of things more. Basically it's about Jesus. and therefore LOVE.
In about an hour i'm going to Bora Bora, my fave place from last year - a daytime club on the beach. woohoooo!! :-) get them dancing shoes on....
