Life by Miami

So my new area is AMAZING. It's called Miami Lakes and I am about 20 minutes from downtown Miami. The super bowl will be pretty close to me soon so the place is going to be bumping. The area is so nice. The houses are nice and it's so beautiful. Our house is actually super nice and we got a ton of weights so we get up at 5am and my companion is a gym rat so we works me hard till I can't move anymore. The area is like all spanish also. I was talking to a guy from Germany yesterday in spanish. Hahah only is Miami can you do that. This is the melting pot of the world. I love it. 

There is so many cubans and they speak terrible spanish so I am learning and trying to understand them. They dont really say there s's at the end of words so it's like tre instead of tres or dio instead of dios. It's funny. I love it. 

My companion Elder Gomez is sweet. He is from Venezuela and came to utah all by himself when he was 17 and is now here. Hes amazing and a stud. I am learning so much from him. He is really funny. Whenever he says a new phrase people ask him who taught him that and I die because that's like a parent telling a little kid that. 

The ward is amazing here and the best part of the week has this family of 4 coming to church because a 12 year old boy invited them and they loved it and they want to come again. They were catholic but they didnt like that church cuz it was apostate, lol.  The catholic church is right next to our church so we will gladly take all them in. 

But the ward is great and the feed us good and love the missionarys. 

I am doing great and love my new area and I am learning how to drive like a crazy city person. 

Take care yall and I love you,
Elder Isom
