The View From Here

I have not done a very good job of giving you all a visual experience of my time in Uruguay. Therefore, in an effort to mix things up and continue to share my adventures with you(in new and exciting ways), I have decided to make this week's post a picture post!

As promised, here is a picture of all of the international students studying at the university with me this semester. There are about 60 of us. I am on the third row from the top on the right side.

My new(and temporary home):



Abuela's sweet house...It is the same house that Gaby grew up in and before she was later able to move in next door with the girls. I love the history and the character of this house, inside and out.

The Flee Market in Ciudad Vieja...

Ciudad Vieja:

 The beautiful Plaza:

This is a snack called an "alfejor." This one is vanilla and has dulce de leche and then is dipped in chocolate. Yum!

Me and my beautiful tour guide, Florencia:

 This is my "I am at the beach" pose that I took the other day on my first walk on the beach:

I love how there are trees and plants on the beach here. It was a beautiful for exploring!

 It is not even beach weather yet and I could get used to this.

Thanks for joining in on my adventures!

Until next time,

Courtney
