Question and Answers ~ Round 4

I haven't done this in months, so here's a new round of 
Q & A  Elder Scott and I had during email time this week.

Question #1: What's the weather like today. Give me a few details about the changing seasons.
Answer: It's getting a little bit hotter each day, but it's still pretty cold (for Perú). Today we have blue skies with partial clouds 😊

Question #2: Have you started dreaming in Spanish yet or are your dreams still in English? Or is it a mix of both?
Answer: Hmmm, I think it's a mix of both, but I never remember my dreams truthfully.

Question #3: What is the *typical* family unit like in Perú? Do moms and dads work outside of the home, or is one parent typically home? Do they have strong family bonds with extended family members?
Answer: Normally all family lives together or in houses that are side by side, like everybody! And normally everyone works. They are usually very close to each other. 

Question #4: How about teenagers? Are they big into Social Media like teens are in America? Is a large portion of their day spent at school? Do they have after school jobs? Basically I am wondering about similarities and differences.
Answer: Yes, they are into social media a ton, especially the WhatsApp. School for them is either from 7:00 until 1:00 or from 3:00 until 6:00. They usually choose which session they participate in for the year. A lot work as well.

Question #5: What's the scariest thing to have happened on your mission so far?
Answer: Ummm, I have no clue. We haven't really had scary things happen truthfully. Everything has been real low key, lol.

Question #6: Do members or investigators ever ask to see pictures of your family? What do you tell them about your life at home?
Answer: Of course! And I show them, too. They ask how many brothers I have and we talk about how there is only one girl in the house. They all say that Jordy looks like dad, I look like you, and Caleb is a mix of both, haha! We also talk about my jobs before my mission quite a bit, and what I'm going to study after my mission.

Question #7: What could we be doing at home to be better missionaries?
Answer: I don't know. What are you doing now? (Haha...he had a valid question I'll need to respond to sometime).

Question #8: What's the BEST thing about being a missionary this week? 
Answer: Seeing a new light shine in people's eyes when they are learning and hearing a new message prepared for them.

Question #9: Where are you living right now (transfers were a week ago and I never heard) and how is your new companion?
Answer: Pensacola near El Carmen in Chimbote, Perú por the Provencia de Santa. My new companion is awesome and things are going great!  Elder Ganoza is from Columbia and was with me in my Moche district with Elder Mich. He's awesome, full of energy to say the least.
