update
Hey chummies. I've been here over 2 weeks now and it's starting to feel like home. The days are flying by and I have a cute little day routine of naps between breakfast and lunch, afternoons on the beach and evenings round the campfire, in winni nest or venturing out somewhere. We went to belated 4th July fireworks on Saturday as there have been some crazy storms around here lately! I've had to invest in an umbrella and have been given the nickname English rain. We went to walmart today and that was quite the experience! Spent way too much money but it was all too good to leave behind ;) on Thursday we are taking a trip to weirs beach, which as I understand it has penny arcades and a pier and other cute things, should be a good night! Also trying to persuade people to come see transformers with me so I can experience an American movie theatre.
People laugh at the words I say and often don't understand what I'm talking about as I'm saying the word differently or using another word, but on the whole people are genuinely in love with the British accent. They find me fascinating - love actually is no exaggeration!
I've noticed the radio stations here play some super old music- think delta Goodrum and howie day, but that might just be New Hampshire. It's like I've been transported back 10 years, as everything is rickety and old here, and I love it.
The ice cream shop is one of my favourite places to hang out, although a single scoop is literally around 5 scoops back home!! So I now get a mini for a whopping 75 cents! I am definitely putting on weight (but the shorts still fit just!)
The past week has been manic, both dining room girls were away so I was promoted to dining room manager with double sittings each meal! It was hectic and exhausting but still fun and I love talking to the guests.
On the cards for the next few weeks is a trip to fun spot and Meredith, and hopefully some trips further afield if I can bug people to take me! I've switched my day off now so hopefully that will help. There's talk of sky divot and white water rafting too!!
Speak soon,
Chloe xxx
