let's see. where to start... i am living in the jungle. i don't really know what to say now that i'm here. our first night here was pretty good. getting to know everybody, where they are from and what. there are the wwoofers like ben and i and then there are residents. the residents could be here for any number of reasons. the wwoofers are: alex ( 20 years old and from france), kyle (21 and from new york), michelle (19, new jersey/vermont), and julia (19 from new jersey). julia and michelle came together. they are all very great i like them a whole lot. and it's nice that they are similar in the age group to us. that helps a whole lot. OH WAIT. there's also jimmy who is 37 and has been in hawaii for the past 5 or 6 months on a previous farm. he's got lots of experience so they give him more duties. he's very kind and nice. smiles a lot. i like that.
the residents are tomash from the czech republic, don from who knows where, he just kinda travels a lot. they are both like 50. smoke a lotta pot. both of em. more tomash. they have a liscence to grow it here so that gives you an idea of how lax marijuana is at this farm. quite lax. theres soffie and she's from the czech republic too and she's a scientist by trade so she's just kinda been here to study the natural and native hawaiian plants. are plot of land is really old and sacred. pretty cool.
i have been very overwhelemed since i've been here and it's hard for me to get it all out. ben will say more about what we've been doing and i will write more when i have a clear head. i am very sunburnt.
one conclusion since i've been here: i am and always will be a midwestern girl. and i love it. i miss the twin cities.
ben will write his own entry now. much love.
The Twin Cities miss you too! :)
