This blog is a record of the "top secret" adventures and misadventures I have had while serving as a missionary in Tisovec, Slovakia and Alto Cayma, Peru.

Language Lesson #1
Today, I can add two VERY important words to my Slovak vocabulary: muzio and geny. These words, "men" and "women" are helpful when deciding which bathroom I should use. Unfortuantely until this afternoon, these words were unfamiliar to me. After careful consideration (inny, minney, miney, moe), I chose the one closest to me. I think I have the male seminarian a jolt when he reached for the bathroom door and I walked out. What can I say? I guess some learning is experiential.

Been there, done that. Understanding that "WC" is code for bathroom is fun too.
