Elder Close is finally off the beach and in a town close to Argentina (see area in red in map below)
so....
there have been a few changes here with me. ive been tranfered1!! 2
americans got their vistas in the middle of the transfer and now I am training.
this is my 3rd companion in one transfer. also, we opened up a new area on the
complete other side of the state. the city is called chapecó. the ppl here are
gaucho (basically rednecks) so they are way different than the ppl in floripa.
weve been here for about 5 dyas already and are finally starting to learn the
area. my new companions name is Elder Duffin. fun fact. it turns out that if it
wasnt for the fact that that i went to the brazil ctm, i would of gone to provo
and we would have been in the same district. it's pretty weird training someone who
has the exact same time as you on the mission. but he is way cool. he spent one
year in texas and finally came here. so basicallly here we have an american who
knows enough portugues to get by, another who is just starting without
investigators or any sense of where we are in the city. its like 2 blind ppl
guiding each other lol. but i like it. that just means we have to work harder
and im learning streets and reference points faster than i ever learned on the
mission. . . but all is
good here.
