The Hubs'
Little Sister gave me a book by
Ann Voskamp for Christmas a few years ago. I devoured this book, and immediately started documenting the things that make me happy as Mrs. Voskamp encourages. Then today I ran across this
blog post by this
cute couple's blog. And just reading the short post about what she was grateful for put a smile on my face.
I have been wondering how I could document all my photos and memories from my
Peace Corps experience. This blog is my story of this experience. And while most post are dedicated to big events like
the completion of conversation clubs, the next few will be about the little things I have come to cherish about my Costa Rica.
This is my favorite road to walk or run down. It is covered by overhanging trees and has a great view of the mountains. I like it so much I made my in-laws walk down it when they visited instead of taking the shorter path. (
It is not always this desolate, the Hubs was almost knocked over by a car on one of his runs here)
Seeing this dog everywhere. Meet Three Tone. He is a dog that we have seen wandering the streets for the last two years. He was named as a joke towards me because I named a similar looking dog Two Tone when his coat was obviously black, white, and brown. (The Hubs and I tend to come up with names for random animals)
OUR ice cream shop. The local Volunteers have started calling it that since this is the only place we take visitors for ice cream and smoothies. The owner is extremely nice (he often gives me the leftovers from my small smoothie) and the prices are cheaper than others.
