Pre-Departure

I have been threatening to create a blog all summer long and finally have taken the half hour to do so. I hope to record future musings about my Peace Corps experience here, once I actually get to Paraguay, so you should check back occasionally. I will be serving as an Environmental Education Volunteer for 2 years after 3 months of in-country training. The details of what I'll be doing and where I'll be doing it are still a mystery to me, so bear with me.

As for now, I'm still in the US of A, packing and saying goodbye to family and friends. I leave for Miami, FL Tuesday morning. After a day of paperwork, immunizations, and other such shenanigans in Florida, I will fly to Paraguay and get there early Thursday morning. There, I am told, will begin the breakneck-paced process of being "trained."

Mail of all sorts will be welcome and can be sent to:
