And we're off!

...well almost. I leave for DC on Monday and then head to Lusaka a few days later. I will be in training for the next three months and will eventually find out where I will be living for the next two years.

So here is how I am hoping this whole thing is going to work. I will have very limited internet so I will update when I can, but the majority of my posts and updates will come from letters I am sending back to the states. Mail takes awhile and the first three months are going to be crazy busy…basically, I will update as soon as I can but at this point “no news is good news.”

Thank you all for the wonderful words of support and encouragement. Please keep sending them because I will need all I can get. I love you all and will be constantly thinking of you and missing you! Rally those frequent flyer miles, check those travel sites, and get ready for slightly adventure traveling to Zambia, the real Africa. There will always be room in my small hut.
