Setting off...

Tomorrow, I am embarking on a new journey to discover myself and the world around me. I hope that over the next 6 months, I will be able to work on some interesting projects, learn as much as I can and explore how I can better contribute to society. Of course, I plan to play as hard as I work; I am really looking forward to meeting different people and experiencing new things, especially the food! I am so lucky to have this opportunity and I can't thank you enough for your support - I hope that in return, I can populate this blog with photos and stories that you won't find too boring!

The itinerary so far (if you are interested in visiting, please let me know!):

-Thailand: EARCOS Global Issues Network Conference

-Cambodia: International School of Phnom Penh

-India: PowerPump Project

-Ghana: International Development Design Summit (IDDS)

I apologize for the long and cumbersome URL, but most names were already taken. In case you are interested, "El Gran Sendero" roughly means "The Big Trail" in Spanish. Since this post is a little dull without a picture, I'll throw one in - it's an oldie, but a goodie (and definitely more fun than a generic one of me packing). I am so grateful that I got to work with teammates with such heart, and I am very excited to be able to see some of them again!
