Sorry I don’t update the blog much. In the past month, I have had two groups of friends come to visit. So, I got to play hostess and travel around the country a little. The first trip was a total disaster, with one glaring lesson: never fly Delta. Listen to that advice people. I have two words for you. Come visit me, but don’t fly Delta when you do. The second trip went off wonderfully, until the last day when insane Easter traffic jams led to a missed return flight. Lesson on that one: everyone and their mother (literally) are traveling to Panama City on Easter to go home after Holy Week, do not travel that day.
We also had an All-Volunteer Conference, so I got to see some of my other volunteers.
I also realized that this blog is now one year old. On April 16th, I finished one year of being in Panama. Since service is 27 months, I’m still a little short of half way. But, I have to say, looking back on the past year. I’m not sure I’ve accomplished very much in terms of saving the world, but I’ve had a lot of fun, learned a lot of new things about the world, am immensely looking forward to the next year, and it will be hard to leave.
