We
have finally arrived after a crazy travel schedule that took us from from
Chiang Mai to Bangkok, Bangkok to Tokyo, Tokyo to Los Angeles, Los Angeles to
Miami, Miami to Managua (Nicaragua), and finally Managua to Jinotepe,
Nicaragua. We are staying at a hotel that is run by Americans from Maryland
called Casa Mateo. We will be working with a local senior center, children in
the barrios, hospitals, and churches. After a nursing home visit and few mile
run I am already in love with Nicaragua. My Spanish skills are slowly returning
and I’m pumped about this month.
I
still need just under $500 to be fully funded for the trip! A huge thank you,
again, to everyone that has so graciously donated thus far. More to come from
Nicaragua.
After
Nicaragua, I will be working in El Salvador then Guatemala. I’m flying into the
US on May 12th!
