All settled in at my new apartment.. ready for a new phase of the adventure to begin

So its been a whirlwind these last few days because on top of all the normal busy things I do, I've been working on finding a new place to live and moving. Why exactly I had to move is a very long story that I won't bother to get into here.. but the bottom line is, I moved. I really hope it will be a fun new phase of this grand adventure! I was living with a family about 10-15 mins from the clinic and that was great, but now I live like 5 mins from clinic is the owner's basement apartment. My roommate Danielle was living here and was looking for a roommate and thankfully agreed to let me live with her. Its a cute little apartment, which I will post pics of shortly. Its right on the water and really close to all the other volunteers so I'll be more in on whatever is going on.
Yesterday was moving day.. I packed up all my stuff, and man do I ever have a lot of stuff! I may have to leave some of it here or I'll have to pay to bring it all on my flights home!! And then we went into Coxen Hole, the city and bought groceries and went to a sweet fruit/veggie market. I felt so grown up buying food at the market (my other living arrangements included food so I never had to worry about buying groceries.. but I do now)!
Overall, this is a new experience and I don't know quite what to think of it yet, but I'm still excited! God has blessed me with a new opportunity and I feel like He led me here, therefore He will give me the strength, patience etc I need to live here.
