I've been here for a week now! (ish) So far, the mission has been great! Argentina is amazing! 
On my first day, I stayed in the mission office because my area was too far away to drive to in
one day. On day two, I got my new companion: Elder Vega!  He is a native spanish speaker 
from Chile, and he cannot speak English (yay!). Once Elder Vega and I got to our area (La Consulta)
we had to clean the fridge out of our mission home (or Pench, as they call it here), because the last 
missionaries left in a hurry and left ALL of their food in the fridge for two months.  It was nasty. 
Also, they don't have toilet paper here, so I get to use a buday (bedai? buh-day? biday? I don't 
have google, so I don't know).  So far the food has been pretty good, too!  Most of the time, people 
just eat bread and maté (which I'm not allowed to drink :| ).  Also, there are no washing machines
here. Anyway, I've already gotten to teach a few lessons and spend time with investigators (whom
I cannot understand), and I'm already starting to love the culture--everyone is so nice.  I'll try to 
post pictures and stuff, but I don't know if it will work in one email.  Bye!
