Transfers
So transfers have literally taken like a week and a half haha. With all the covid tests going wild and not hearing soon enough and people being quarantined made transfers super long. Luckily I got to Bosnia fairly quick
Before transfers:
We visited a castle which was sooo cool, a way cool walk up there and a way cool thing to see. We did exchanges for a day which was a great experience. And then the next day we really didn't do a whole lot. Both of which were fun and i was okay with because I got to be with the mtc homies longer.
After transfers:
It took a solid 5 hour drive or something to get to Sarajevo. First off my companion is awesome! His name is Elder Christensen (from Boise, Idaho) and the dude is amazing. We have a ton of similar hobbies and stuff and talking with him is way fun, I've already learned so much. Serving with him will be great.
As for the work, it's a LOT. Normally we do the work in one city (Sarajevo) but since of covid there isn't as many missionaries here. We just have me and Elder Christensen, two sisters, and a senior couple managing like 3 cities. Basically all of Bosnia. So the first two days here were super busy and filled with stuff I will learn eventually. I am the clerk in the branches so I'm learning a lot more finance work than I thought was gonna happen. It seems like a lot right now, but I know I will eventually learn it all slowly.
Spiritual thought: 1 Nephi 3:7
"...the Lord giveth no commandments unto the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them."
This has been cool for me because all the new work has been a lot to handle but I know from the support of y'all, my companion, and the Lord, I can work through the path he has put down for me.
Hope y'all have a fantastic day!

3. Small memorial(s) that are found everywhere representing a bomb going off and killing 3 or more people from the war. Super sad to see those
4. Building with bullet holes and other markings from artillery in the war. You'll see a lot of buildings with holes and such.
