Bienvenidos to my Blog!

Hello Family, Friends, and Curious Readers,

Thanks for stopping in to see what I am up to. This is my first blog, and I hope not to bore you too much with the details of my life. But rather hope to offer you some insights into development work, the highs, the lows, and well the boring.

But before I move away for 27 months, let me give you a little information about myself before I lose a steady internet connection.

So after graduating from Boston College in 2005, I decided I wanted to learn Spanish and "save the world" so I moved to Cusco, Peru. I began by volunteering for The Center for Traditional Textiles of Cusco by researching and writing a small business plan for the organization. I continued to work with the organization until February of 2008, when I returned to the US to prepare for my move to Madrid, Spain for 15 months to study an International MBA at IE Business School. And now, after a year of searching for the perfect development job, and taking odd jobs in the meantime, I have joined the Peace Corps and am volunteering again. So wish me luck, and PLEASE someone stop me from volunteering again!

Quick Update...

I apologize for not posting anything earlier, but this week life got back to normal after two weeks of Independence Day celebrations. I had a nice long relaxing weekend (last weekend) read a book, and worked on my presentation for my upcoming teacher workshop which I have this Wednesday (Update to follow on that one!)

This week classes went alright, I had some planning sessions cancelled then rescheduled, and this weekend I have been relaxing and going to the gym. It's life as usual here, but thought I would give an update anyway.
Hope you all keep making good choices and love you all!

    She really does look like Boo. Adorable. I'm sure Hessel would be pumped that there's boat show fans in Nicaragua.
