My Pad

the place i have been supplied with is more or less a hostel, and i can do something else once i get more settled but i think i am going to like this as a permanent home...$60 a month with electricity, internet, running water, and full size bed


it is enough room for me and also small enough to not have wasted space...there are probably around 15 rooms on my, lower level and a large room full of bunk beds upstairs. The front entrance is locked and has people up front for security...there are 2 TVs and a phone in the "lobby area"

i am in the back, away from the road so there is hardly any noise at night, and the other 2 rooms around me are rented by Mike and Maria, 1 for them to live in, and 1 used as an office and kitchen.

here are a few pics of my room, without the 190 pounds of luggage i am waiting on.. the 2-70 lb pieces are in Managua and continental is working to find my final 50 lb bag (between raleigh and california we think) Thank God! When all 3 are in Managua-they will drive them the 2 hours to me in Leon, probably by Monday at the latest



hope you all have a great weekend and thank you so much for your prayers and emails thus far, continue to pray for my 3rd bag and just getting settled over the weekend

Love and miss you ALL!! -Diego
