Quick Post! - Blogabond

Ok I’ve arrived at the farm! I really can’t talk long because I am borrowing someone else’s computer. I will definitely have to figure out how I can communicate with people. As of yet, my cell phone does not make calls out and I have only 2 bars of service here. People can call me though, so if someone needs to talk to me they can definitely try!

I will write a longer, more detailed post later (at some point), but right now I am working with farm animals. Milking cows, feeding pigs, going into chicken coops to pull out eggs… all stuff I have never done before and stuff that freaks me out! I am definitely confronting fears. This morning I let piglets out by accident and we had to Chase them around. Dogs tried to eat them, they squealed. It was a mess. I sorta learned how to milk a cow today, but I defintely wasn’t successful.

We definitely rough it here. We have to start a fire to get hot water, for instance. I am happy to be here, but I miss being able to tell people what I am up to. I feel like they’re worrying, so hopefully this post will help. I will try my best to figure out a better way of contact! Stay tuned!

p.s. Pics may not be able to be posted until I get back to the States, or until I can get to an Internet cafe or something. I don’t want to hog a computer that’s not mine!
