Kelsey's Blog from Paraguay. Every thousand mile journey begins with a single step." -Chinese Proverb. Wednesday, October 21, 2009. As I flip through my mental photos of my past year in Paraguay, there's one photo that will always appear as vivid as the moment I took it. In this picture, a stranger might see an older woman hanging up some meager clothes on the line to dry. If they're observant, they might wonder about her bright smile that lights up the night. Enca Torres grew up in the campo. The dedica...

Kelsey's Blog from Paraguay. Every thousand mile journey begins with a single step." -Chinese Proverb. Sunday, November 9, 2008. On thursday I went to a school program with a couple girls from the CD (Lorena and Claudia). There were traditional dances (unfortunately not the bottle dances, where they balance bottles on their heads), and a crowning of king and queen of the high school. Here are a few pictures from that. And this is just a picture on my way to work. Have a good week! View my complete profile.

Kelsey's Blog from Paraguay. Every thousand mile journey begins with a single step." -Chinese Proverb. Friday, November 21, 2008. Are YOU my host mom! Are YOU my host mom! I remember when I was younger, I would always play board games on the floor of my Grandma Nussbaum's living room with my cousins. One of my favorite games was one that was called "Are YOU my mother? Where the game pieces were little chicks that had magnets, and you had to find your "mother" to whom you connected to (North-South poles).

Kelsey's Blog from Paraguay. Every thousand mile journey begins with a single step." -Chinese Proverb. Sunday, August 31, 2008. I´ve been having trouble with the mouse and charger, and it´s been a big head ache, but since I bought a wireless mouse, it´s working! Other than that, there´s not much to update on. Things continue to get better with time, because all of the volunteers that I live with (including me) and improving our spanish, and speaking more of it. Too bad I didn´t notice it on the bus!

Kelsey's Blog from Paraguay. Every thousand mile journey begins with a single step." -Chinese Proverb. Saturday, December 27, 2008. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! This Christmas, although Santa apparently doesn´t visit South America, he leaves it to the three wisemen who come on Jan 6th, I was still blessed with so many gifts. 2 The second gift- celebration! Something I´m also finding is that Paraguayans really know how to celebrate! Complete with firecrackers, dancing, you name it! Life as i know it.

Kelsey's Blog from Paraguay. Every thousand mile journey begins with a single step." -Chinese Proverb. Sunday, October 26, 2008. Well, these pictures aren't quite in the order that I had wanted. But I'm not that much of a perfectionist (although, working with registration this year, I'm sure that that is one of the things that I will be forced to learn) it doesn't bother me. So I'll just explain as I go along. This weekend was so much fun! She really knows how to make people feel welcomed and at home.
