hello all time for another update....
So I have been here for little less than a month. It is starting to feel like home. It's been a really slow process but it's getting easier. I am finally starting to feel a part of my host family, laughing with my 8 and 11 year old host brothers and sharing laughter at the dinner table. They are a little crazy like my family back home, but I like it :) The rain is picking up and our power flashed on Friday during the thunder storms. It's pretty amazing watching the storms come in over the mountains. Life is so different here but I like it :)
I am a 24 year old Christian out on an adventure. I have taken up the challenge of serving in the Peace Corps for two years in Guatemala. This is a blog about my life here: struggles, hardships, joys and fears. Please feel free to ask questions or post comments if something sparks your interest. Have a great day!
Would you like to make a tax deductible donation to my future projects?
Hello Fellow Blog Readers:
To those of you who are interested, I will be setting up an account that will allow you to make tax deductible donations to the projects I will be working on my second year. I will be spending my first year working on education. Then in my second year, I will determine families that are in need of a project in order for them to better their health. Projects could include, an improved cook stove, latrine, cement floor, water storage system, or drainage system. Criteria for recipients of projects will also be based on families dedication to the educational health talks that I will be giving and how great their desire is to better their health. More details to come concerning cost break down as it becomes available.
I am giving you a heads up so that you can start putting money away for this now if you so desire, maybe you have something you can give up and instead of spending the money you can send it towards a good cause. I will be setting up a fund when the time gets closer to begin my projects.
