What I love about Honduras

• The central park where everyone hangs out, especially just after school lets out and the huge Catholic Church that overlooks the park


• Greeting people on the street


• Red tile roofs & palmtrees
The view from my roof

• My apartment


• Sitting in the hammock and listening to the sound of rain on the corrugated tin roofs and how the rain cools everything off


• Betty’s Baleadas (flour tortilla with beans, eggs and avocados and tomatoes, Betty’s are huge and delicious and cost less than $1)


• That it is cheaper for me to call the states with my cell phone than it is for me to call within Honduras (actually I wish it was cheaper to call within Honduras, but it’s a pretty funny irony probably attributable to the fact that there are about 1 million Hondurans illegally living in the States)


• Baths in the pila
Jose, the baby of the landlords, gets a bath in the pila

• Hammocks


• Free time (but not too much)


• That my landlords bring in my clothes off the line when it starts to rain and I’m not home


• Mangos, pineapple, avocados and choco bananas
