hello family

i am here in portugal and i am having the time of my life. I love the mission. it is seriously the coolest thing ever i don´t know why everyone come on a mission. Today is p day obviously and we had to come to porto for some unknown reason.-anyways let me tell you about my amazing life!~okay so i arrived in portugal and was so tired from traveling all day and all night and then we had to declare that we were living in the country or something do with our passports and visas - i really have no idea because i don´t really understand what the people are saying to me. anyways it took like almost 4 hours and i totally fell asleep then we ate dinner. my first meal that i ate when there wasn´t a tray underneath my plate so that was realy nice. the dessert was the best part we had ice cream and these really good cookies. the we got to go to sleep and i feel asleep at 7 :30 at night. that was awesome until i woke up at 2 and couldn´t fall back asleep for 2 hours - but it was a great time to read my scriptures and study the language The the next day we went to the church and had some instruction and then we got our assignments for our areas and for our comps. i am in a tripla if you hadn´t already figured that out. their names are iram svedin from utah and irma evans from arizona. they are real nice. we are serving in the area of coimbra. it is awesome and i really love everything about it. we live in this tiny studio apartment tva has got nothing on this place lol. okay so maybe they are about the same size with a smaller kitchen. it is awesome and we have great windows. we were live there is a big university i think one of oldest in europe if i am correct about this. they have really pretty architecture its all pretty beat up and dumpy but for some reason i still find it so beautiful. they have these really great botanical gardens here that we go running in in the morning and i just can´t stop smiling it makes me so happy that a- i am running out side b- i get to run in magical gardens. here is my address: Avenida sá da bandeira
