I found your blog through Rubi.:-) I'm not an expat or anything like that, but after I discovered Rubi's blog through Latinaish I never looked back. I enjoy reading all the stories. Consider me another reader even if I don't always comment.

We have pretty much everything here we had in the States. Including oreos ;) <br /><br />I love to read your blog, your entire life fascinates and inspires me!

There are a lot of good and bad but I think you have a great attitude about everything and are still able to stand up to what you believe in and thats not an easy thing to do here. Also congrats on the weight loss. I love the fresh food here and actually the heat helps too, sometimes it takes away the hunger, so thats a plus :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01877484236937076790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3155457839792447584.post-78685976383000082912012-06-16T16:16:21.541-05:002012-06-16T16:16:21.541-05:00(this iPad drives me insane with cutting off my co...(this iPad drives me insane with cutting off my comments!)<br /><br />The cultural differences Im still dealing with, but at least the important issues (saftey, breastfeeding etc) have been 100% asserted, foot down, aint no other way about it.

But, unfortunately, I gained it all back, plus some. That is why I am back at losing it again.<br /><br />It is good to hear that you have found your footing and taken a stand for what you believe in. That cultural difference is a doozy sometimes.<br /><br />Here is to the next 6 months and more!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08088917360196219334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3155457839792447584.post-17688260249453980542012-06-16T13:28:45.285-05:002012-06-16T13:28:45.285-05:00Congratulations on a big milestone!

You are so strong, determined, and smart, if anyone could be successful in a cross-continent move, it's you. I know I've said it before but your girls are so lucky to have such a Mami to learn from. The depth and breath of this cross-cultural experience will be so important in their lives. May you continue to have many many "ups"! <br />Here's to six more months (and beyond!)<br />Sasstress<br />PS that cousin sounds kinda pushy;)Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16465024757127850767noreply@blogger.com
