Laundry at home
Washing clothes at home. In the winer I had to use rubber gloves to protect my hands from the very cold water.

Another day in the fields
I ran into friends from a local village and they are always willing to smile for the camera. This mother was coming back from the fields and I begged the young daughter to hop up on the donkey for a photo. I don't know who did the better convincing - a whining, begging PCV or a mother with a quick, warning look.

US family meets PC family
My family was visiting from the States and we couldn't let their visit go by without a good old fashion Macedonian picnic, complete with pictures! Macedonians make everyone feel like family and that is what happened on this special day!

Hiking with family
Sonia and Tosho; friends that became instant family. Hiking was a great way to learn about each other and our different cultures.

Making Ivar
This was our very first experience with making Ivar, a red pepper spread. It is a day long process and once the Americans got out of bed, our host father took a lot of pride teaching us the whole process. Other than spending great quality time together, eating the end result was the best part of the day!!

A ride around the neighborhood
This picture took place during our first month living with our host family. My host mother told me something in Macedonia and, as usual, I had no clue what she was saying, but followed her out the door. What a fun surprise to see our chariot waiting to take us for a ride around the block!
