Today I went on a field trip with my environmental group to visit a volunteer, who is currently serving in a community that can only be reached by dugout canoe. It was beautiful. It is the scene that I have in my head when I think about PC. We visited a volunteer that runs an after school eco club, a baking club with ladies in the community, a eco and health friendly stove making project, solar panel project, english and tech classes among other things. She is quite amazing. It was nice to see an example of what I might be doing.

This is the port where the bus dropped us off and we hopped on a boat to go to the volunteer site. |

This is the volunteer's house that her community built for her.

A couple of pics from the past:

Good Bye party at Dave and Busters. Lots of fun--thanks to everyone who made the trip to see me off (Sue, the Roberts and Dad) |

In the ATL airport at 5am. Now I have to carry all that stuff around Panama. |

City of Knowledge. Old army base where we have training and where a couple of people are staying. |

This is the view from the PC office. That is the Canal over by those smoke stacks. |
I'm heading off tomorrow to move in with my first host family. I'm not sure about internet--so hang in there.
