My Peace Corps Adventure Begins!

Tomorrow, June 15th, I leave the comforts of what I am used to and set out on the adventure of a lifetime-27 months in Zambia with Peace Corps. It kicks off with some shots in the morning (to prevent fun diseases), then bus to JFK and then a 15 hr flight to Jo'burg, South Africa. We spent the night then take a 2 hour flight to Lusaka...

I move into a mud hut in a couple weeks and I'm very excited. The only thing that upsets me is lack of communication back home. I'll miss my family, my dog, and my girl Carly among some other things. It's going to take me a while until I'm comfortable, but I'm still looking forward to this whole experience.

Alright, I don't really know much yet, so i don't have a lot to say. More will come later and hopefully it'll be more interesting.
