less than a month...

Time is going by too fast...  I leave Minneapolis on May 23, fly out on the 1st to Philadelphia, and then will be in Ecuador the evening of the 2nd.  Mixed feelings, obviously.  Excited to be moving on with the next chapter in my life, sad to be saying goodbye to those I may never see again, and a bit nervous.  I don't think I'm really scared though..the fact that I'm familiar with the language and culture calms some anxiety, but who knows what will happen.  For all I know they'll put me in a completely quechua speaking community, time will tell.  

9 months of waiting for 2 years of adventure :)
