Being in a place where I know no one can get a bit lonely. Everyone was keen to show me around at first, but after a month, I feel like a limpet, piggybacking on other lives, not living my own. I got my family back home to pray that I would find a friend or some friends who weren't just kindly letting me tag along. That evening I met a lovely girl who's friends are all getting married and she feels like they don't have as much time for her anymore. She'd been praying that God would provide her with a new friend so she didn't feel so lonely. It turns out we live only a couple of streets from each other! We plan to go out for a cuppa regularly and play guitar together. She's even talking of inviting me round for traditional Colombian food. God provides!
He's also provided me with a friend who loves art. We are meeting up weekly to paint and do bible study together. Its lovely having time to get back into art and music again, and even nicer to have companionship.
