Yesterday was epic. I have no other word for it. I have learned so much about my new host culture in just one awesome day! Our language center went on a picnic; we drove about 2.5 hours north out into the beautiful mountainside. The day was full of fun! We had constant Kurdish music and dancing. A *ton* of delicious food. We hopped a creek to the picnic spot and set up camp/food as soon as we arrived. We relaxed, played games, laughed, and I learned my numbers in Kurdish from about 1-100 during our game of BINGO.
It was a great break to be away from the city. Here are just a few pictures from the day. More will follow of the actually "picnicking"!
We stopped on the way to "get ice"...looks a bit different than the bags back home.
The gorgeous mountainside!
Audrey and I brought blond brownies...our students brought the rest of this yummy food!
Talking with some of the students!!
