Don't Fret...Just Yet

AH, I leave in 12 days!  

After a good month of resistance in creating a Peace Corps blog, my cards are folded.  This foray into my beloved Africa will not be quite as whimsical (read: drunken) as my study abroad in Cape Town, but at the very least, it will keep us all a bit connected.  As my family works, plays, and gets taller (hi Harrison, Justin, Holly, and Noah!) and my friends start first jobs or (gasp) grad school, I will be getting dirty in Tanzania.

I leave June 7 for Washington D.C.  There I will meet my new partners in crime and get a few (or 10) needles stuck in me.  Since my only experience with Typhoid Fever was playing the Oregon Trail on a floppy disk in 3rd grade, I've decided to endure all vaccinations gracefully.  On Tuesday, June 10, I hop on a flight to Frankfurt, Zurich, then Dar es Salaam.  As for specifics, that's about all I know!  

My bedroom resembles a camping store turned upside down.  It's about time I fix it.

Stay tuned!
