HOLA! I arrived in Houston this morning and had an exhausting fun filled day of orientation... I am officially registered as a Peace Corps Trainee!!! We (training group of 57) ship out of the hotel bright and early (3:30) to being our journey to Teguz.... one thing to mention though, is that we found out that the town, Zarabanda, where the training center is, does not have internet, so you may not hear from me for 3 months! I dont know when i will have access to email nor when i will get my cell phone.. so please hold tight, dont worry, no news is good news, and i will send an update as soon as i can!
I think this is going to be a pretty awesome experience. Probably the hardest thing i will ever do (besides give birth?) but regardless of the not-so-great parts, it will definitely help strengthen my character.
We will move in with our first (of 3) host families tomorrow night, and being training the next day. Wish me luck! It will be INTENSE.
Please write letters if you can :) They will make me smile.
Funny side note: the name of the airport i landed in is George Bush Airport. Go figure.
Besos!

I am certainly no expert, but I don't think child birth requires 27 months...
