Off to the Philippines

So I am off to the Philippines! I am very excited to begin work as a Peace Corps volunteer! My staging is August 13-14. I will be in the education program working as a teacher of English. I am super pumped! I am a little sad about leaving my kindergarten kiddos, but I am so excited about this exciting adventure! My pre-service training dates are August 16-November 6, and my official service dates will be November 7, 2008-November 7, 2010. How exciting! Wahoo!

Gotten to trek through the forest yet? lol Just kidding! I can't wait to hear all about your time there!
