Three countries in three weeks


About a month ago I wrote about CIMA in Brazil and at the end of my post I mentioned that we didn't know where we would be heading on the 25th. Well it ended up that actually no one knew about us and that no one had any work for us. So the Pastor that we were working with offered us to stay for the last few days with him and keep helping him and his ministry. This time ended up being a huge blessing for all of us.
The last few days prior my return to Switzerland we enjoyed some free time downtown Rio. So we had the chance to go to the Jesus statue and to visit some beaches.

Back in Switzerland I had to start packing and say goodbye to my friends and family. I had three weeks left in Switzerland which one I spent skiing in the mountains. It was good to be back even though it was just for a few weeks. This way I got the chance to talk to friends and family and to say my goodbyes to them.
On the 24th of February my trip to Costa Rica started. My flight went to Frankfurt, then over Santo Domingo (Dominican Rep.) to San Jose Costa Rica. At 5:30am I arrived in San Jose and a missionry from Movida picked me up. Now I live with a local family which doesn't live to far away from all the other Movida missionraies. It is good to live this family and to learn this new Cultur first hand. Something that I have to get used to is their breakfast. The picture on the left is what Costa Ricans eat all day long. So that was my breakfast. It for sure will not be easy but I'm happy to learn this new culture and language


Well this is it for now. I'll post more in a few weeks again as soon as I have experienced more of this beautiful country. Thanks for your interest and support.
