As things slowly come to a wrap for me here in the United States, I've been spending my time doing research here and there to prepare myself for my new life. I thought I'd share a few of the links to my sources in case friends and family want to know more about where I am going and what I will be doing for the next 27 months.
This is the Peace Corps official handbook guide to Kenya! A really useful tool!

"You Better Remember This" is a beautiful narrative about everyday life in Kenya from the eyes of a former volunteer.

I also found a couple of blogs:

Anyway, I'm getting very excited for my new life. I've found someone to take over my apartment in the Marina which is good, but I'm going to miss my cozy little cave so much! I loved that apartment and it was short lived. I'm moving back into my father's house in Martinez on April 15th and I've given my work notice that my last day is April 28th. Then I get all of May to just party and relax before my journey. It's been hard to focus at work when I know what lays ahead of me.
Will blog again soon!

Hi Andrea! I appreciate you stopping by and leaving such a friendly comment on my blog. I thought I'd return the favor. You seem like a really lively and fun and smart person. Yay you! :-D
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to meeting you, too. Only 8 more weeks!
So proud you're following your dream! I always knew my little Andi would go off to help save the world. Good luck. I will miss you love!
