This is incredible. I am in bocfolde/csatar, two tiny villages of 1000 and 500. this is a breathtaking experience. i cannot explain it. the people are so kind and generous. yesterday y host family, after showing me the beautiful APARTMENT i am living in, paraded me around the village and introduced me to so many new things...orchards, vineyards, pigs, the mayor. i was given a very valuable gift by a local... a giant mushroom. my host mom and i are going to cook it today, i think....i am overwhelmed and so so happy. i taught my first class this morning to wonderful excited children. this afternoon, ill be teaching intermediate kids...people more our age. its really challenging, teaching 2 two hour classes, but i try to fill up the time as much as possible. theyre so eager to learn and i am too. ive been trying to pick up hungarian, but its a tough languag. a few words here and there so far... theyre being patient with me. this is crazy! but they treat me like royalty. theyve never seen an american before, let alone an INDIAN american. they are too cute. did i mention these people are amazing! after having the time of my life in budapest, i miss the other volunteers, but a bunch of us are meeting up this week to catch up and speak as much english as possible. i still cant believe im doing this. its awesome. i will write you more coherently and eloquently at the end of the week. i gots some lesson plans to take care of first. i love you all. ps i showed your pics to my host family and my students and the most common reactions are: "are all americans so beautiful?" and "cool clothes!"
