Mayan ruins in Copan, HondurasI have left my friends and Guate-family behind in Quetzaltenango and I am now in El Progreso, Honduras. I will be here for at least the next month volunteering with OYE's many projects here in Progreso, mainly their radio program.
The first thing I noticed about Honduras is that it is HOT. During the day it is consistently about 95 degrees with humidity. Sweat, sun, and heat are a part of life although somehow the Hondurans manage to wear jeans, shoes and long sleeve shirts while I soak through my shorts and t-shirt. It will definitely be a transition from the
cool climate of Xela.
But so far I love the culture, the food, and the people here in Honduras. There is a lot of work to be done with OYE and I can't wait to dig in.
