It’s getting closer. I officially leave for Peace Corps 1 week from today! I depart for my 1-day orientation in Miami next Tuesday, then fly with the group to Asuncion, Paraguay (via Buenos Aires). No US airlines fly from a US city to Asuncion, so flights usually connect through Buenos Aires or one of the airports in Brazil. I’ve heard that there will be 28 people in my training group.
For now, I am packing and getting last minute items I can’t live without for the next 2 years. I can bring 2 bags, 50 pounds each. One will definitely be my new hiking backpack! It’s tough to decide what I will need for the next 27 months!
I will be spending quality time with the family my last week here in the US. I’m feeling very excited and a bit nervous about my big adventure ahead!
