I´ll be posting random things up every now and then so that you can keep up with what I´m getting up to in the land of bananas, otherwise known as Ecuador! http://www.getjealous.com/oliviafoster http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=590504&go=oliviafoster ah! finally! a free moment!update: I am now on tour with the rest of the team: 8 churches in 8 weeks (4 of the churches are our home churches, and 4 are ones that BMS have links with, but we dont)I was fairly worried about it before we started, mainly because i knew it would be so much work! but you will be happy, im sure, to find out that im loving it! its amazing! very tiring, and some people fi... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=590504&go=oliviafoster Wed, 27 May 2009 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=579323&go=oliviafoster That's all really.... I'm home, safe, and about to start the next step of...dun dun duuuuun....tour!will update later.... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=579323&go=oliviafoster Sun, 12 Apr 2009 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=574662&go=oliviafoster Time is warping majorly now! I can't properly explain it, but it seems to be going both unbearably slowly and scarily fast at the same time. I can't wait to see people from home again (family, Hamils, Amy and everyone else) but I know that when I'm seeing them, it'll mean im not in Ecuador, and that its finished. I hate missing places because theres never anything you can DO, you just feel hopeles... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=574662&go=oliviafoster Wed, 25 Mar 2009 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=570407&go=oliviafoster helloooo! sorry for lack of communication, been BUSY! quick update.... a few weeks ago we travelled up to Quito (the capital) to do a holiday club there, and stayed with Lizzie, an BMS worker from England. This week was really good, but mad... the pastor picked us up at 8am to go to a school to teach and play games with the kids. we got back to the house at about 1:30pm, grabbed some lunch and... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=570407&go=oliviafoster Mon, 9 Mar 2009 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=564283&go=oliviafoster OK, so after the first two weeks of Holiday Club i can safely say that my prediction of its madness was correct. The two weeks we've just had couldnt really have been more different: the first one was in Duran, a small mision where we had about 30 kids max and were left pretty much to our own devices in a very small church room. Senderos de Fe is a pretty big church, we had loads of helpers to do ... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=564283&go=oliviafoster Sat, 14 Feb 2009 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=560595&go=oliviafoster Quick update on what im going to be spending the next 9 weeks doing before i come home....HOLIDAY CLUB!!!!!this is a little bit mad.... we´re doing 8 one-week-long holiday clubs in 8 different churches, one of which is in Quito (the capital) and one of which is in the jungle. wow. Our first one starts tomorrow... we´ve spent the last two weeks since being back in Ecuador in Mad Plannin... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=560595&go=oliviafoster Sun, 1 Feb 2009 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=556444&go=oliviafoster i dont quite feel up to an exciting journal entry, but ill give you the backbone of whats happened!I am now back in Guayaquil! Unfortunate that the supposed "24 hour " bus journey turned into the LONGEST 62 HOURS OF MY LIFE! After the first 15 hours or so, we had to stop because of protests going on in north Peru by farmers wanting better prices for water (i think). So we spent all of th... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=556444&go=oliviafoster Sat, 17 Jan 2009 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=555204&go=oliviafoster Hello all!Just to let you know that we got to Peru safely after a 29 hour bus journey, 6 films, several confusing stops, a fallen-off tyre and three bad meals. All in all a good experience! :)Went to the Ecuador Embassy in Peru and were given some hope that we might be able to get back into Ecuador, so we´re reapplying for our visas at the moment. Please pray that it goes through... i think ... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=555204&go=oliviafoster Mon, 12 Jan 2009 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=553125&go=oliviafoster Very unexpectedly (on my side) our visas didnt go through.... we went to reapply for a tourist visa and it was abruptly rejected, meaning we cant stay in Ecuador. So, long story short, we´re moving to Peru tomorrow morning (only found out this morning) while BMS find something for us to do for the next three months in another country.Please please please pray for me and the rest of the team.... http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=553125&go=oliviafoster Mon, 5 Jan 2009 12:00:00 GMT http://www.getjealous.com/getjealous.php?action=showdiaryentry&diary_id=552839&go=oliviafoster Ok... new site especially for this holiday, becuase its so special.
