I've been working towards finishing my Rio projects and homework, which for sometime was the defining factor as to whether or not I was heading to Guatemala or not.
Took a final...got an A!

Have my prescription for malaria meds. thanks to Mom

The anti-diarrheals are purchased and accompanied by the rolaids (not knowing what to expect).



Watching a beautiful sunset and appreciating the fact that being a teacher DOES have benefits (see: SUMMER break)

New to blogging...New to Guatemala!

After many viewings of friends' blogs for various purposes, i decided I needed a way to keep both friends and family posted on my upcoming travels to Guatemala. Check here often for updates on my trip and travels throughout Central America.

I leave June 9 with hopes to immerse myself at the Celas Mayas school in Quetzlatenango, Guatemala. I will arrive in Guatemala City that Saturday, catch a ride to the school in Xela and meet my family. I am to live with a host family during my stay in Guatemala and will be receiving one-on-one tutoring services, 5 days a week at the school. Some days I'll take trips other days I hope to dance, learn to cook Guatemalan food and form friendships in my new home for the summer!
