Tying Up Loose Ends (or, Yes, I know, it's been a while and this is actually just pictures, I won't lie)

Bonjour y’all!

I know it’s been a while since I posted, but we’ve been winding things down here at the office and slowly preparing things for the next interns, who will start arriving next week. As of now, it’s just me and Gabby finishing things off!

We’ve had a few random things happen over the past few weeks, some visitors who wanted to learn more about what the IIMA Human Rights Office does, a huge amount of Sisters came, and nice walk at the Botanical Garden, and a visit to a chocolate festival! (Even though very little of the chocolate was free L.)

So for this blog post, I’m just gonna let you enjoy some of the many pictures that I have taken. Mostly because I need to do a deep cleaning of every place in which I have lived or worked. Which is gonna take awhile. ^_^’



So we all went on a lovely walk around Veyrier before Pedro abandoned us

I just thought this house was a little weird with the two doors (and bench?)

Oh! And we accidentally wandered into France!

Way easier than you might imagine

These were our young visitors getting a bit of orientation

Of course, we had to take them to the UN

AND THEN CHOCOLATE FESTIVAL!!

ALL ABOARD THE CHOCOLATE TRAIN!!

CHOCOLATE SCULPTURES!!

So here was my favorite dinosaur sculpture...

and here was my favorite non-dinosaur sculpture!

AND HERE IS SOME FREE CHOCOLATE FOR ME

Also caricatures...using chocolate to draw

AND CHOCOLATE GELATO!!

This sign was just super funny

Off to the Botanical Garden!

Ah, just like being home again

Pretty orange flowers

AND A LIZARD

I'm just really proud of this pictures of Maria Rita, I don't know why

Ah, the random leaves of North America

Another pretty flower

This one looks like those flowers from Alice in Wonderland

BUMBLEBEE!!

AND...sheep?

Flamingos??

This chicken with it's RIDICULOUS haircut???

Also, Maria Rita's slippers now look like a screaming face

And last, but not least, Happy Palm Sunday everyone!
So I leave Tuesday morning super early, but since I'm going back in time that means I'll be getting home Tuesday afternoon! Just in time to buy a ton of chocolate for Easter!

I'll actually only be home for a week this time as I'll be flying off to California to volunteer with the sisters there for my last three months of my volunteer year. Honestly, I can't wait!

Until next time!
