This week flew by! Work is busy as usual. I have been in charge of our weekly e-newsletter entirely lately, so that’s been a lot of work. I write up articles, post pictures, and also update the company’s website with all the new tournaments coming up, star players in the region, courses available and whatever else will catch a lookers eye.

I had a lot of fun babysitting, the little boy was so adorable. He didn’t know much English at all, he just sat on his Ipad and played splashy fish and flappy bird.. some of the only words he could say in English. The kids were wonderful and well behaved. The little boy went to bed really easy and stayed asleep until his parents got home later that night.

I made a new friend the other day, sitting on a bench and he ended up being from America. He had only been here for less than a day when we met, so we both decided to go on a hike that neither of us had been on yet. The view was gorgeous and the hike was just a perfect amount of time and difficultness.

I’m moving out of my apartment in a few days, and am moving in with the lady I work with and babysit for. It should be a good experience to live in a house with a family while I am here, so I am pretty excited about that.

That’s all for now,

Amanda
