Buenas!!

What a crazy week! So let's get into it!

On Tuesday we picked up all the new missionaries. It was so much fun! They were all so excited to be in Panamá and thought that we were superheroes. It was super funny! I literally have more time in my mission than all of them combined! jaja

Then my companion Elder Ixen and I planned a bit of what we are going to do, and how we are going to do it.

Our house is now two tiny suitcases... It's awesome! We just go around to different areas daily. The fun part is that we can go anywhere and at any time we want! And no one ever knows where we are... jajaja

Well, we started off our adventure by going on the good ol 12 hour bus ride to Banana Land! It was so good to be back! I love Changuinola so much. We had a really good time with the Elders there.

We had exchanges in Empalme with Elderes Per and Tamariz. Then in Changuinola with Elder Harry and my child Elder Keck. I love Elder Keck! He sure makes a dad proud.

Then we left for David. We got there at 12 AM. Slept till 4 AM, and left to go to Puerto Armuelles. Puerto is SO STINKIN HOT! It was like a furnace! But it was cool! I went with my New Zealand friend Elder Aguilar. He has the coolest accent!!

The Elders of Solano rejected us. They wouldn't let us come and do intercambios. So we went to their church on Sunday! jaja. They weren't happy to see us, but the members were! The members were super nice to us, and even gave us food!

Then exchanges in Bolivar with Elderes Pineda and Ramirez. Also a super fun day!

This is honestly a super crazy adventure! I'm loving every minute of it! Every day we have to give 110%. It doesn't matter how tired we are. I love getting to know the missionaries, and to help them feel loved and hyped up!

Anyways. I'll share more another week, but we have to travel to Boquete! Love y'all lots! Keep praying for mission Panamá! Until Next Week!
