Hola Mexico!

Hello all!

Welcome to my newly created blog! As you may know, tomorrow I will be departing for a year-long Mexican adventure; living in an unfamiliar country, learning an unfamiliar language, and experiencing an unfamiliar culture. I can't wait to get started!

The first leg of my journey begins tomorrow in Akron, Pennsylvania at MCC HQ where all of us SALTers will remain for a week of orientation, after which we will be departing for our various assignment countries. At this time I will head for Mexico! More specifically, for Cuernavaca, Morelos to Universal Centre for Language and Social Communication where I will be studying Spanish for four weeks before beginning my work at La Buena Tierra.

During my stay in Cuernavaca, I will try my very hardest to keep this page updated with my whereabouts, adventures, work-related activities, and other general information.

I'd like to thank all my friends and family who have been so amazingly supportive of this endeavour, I couldn't do it without all of your encouragement and affirmation!

Peace,
Sam

Goodbye again and I hope you have a safe journey. But remember, DON'T LISTEN TO YOUR IPOD UNTIL YOU GET ON THE PLANE!!! :)
