It has begun...

I slowly began my Peace Corps experience in April 2007 with the following:
29-page application
250-question health survey
Personal Interview with a PC recruiter
Fingerprints

After I had completed the above, I decided to join AmeriCorps*VISTA to gain a little more organizational and leadership experience before the GRAND PC adventure. I have been working as a volunteer coordinator for Habitat for Humanity since August and will finish this August.

I was finally nominated in April 2008 for the Agriculture Extension program that will be based somewhere in Latin America (country info to come) leaving in September 2008!!! I have recently completed the following:
Physical
Blood Tests
Immunizations (my arms are still sore)

Once I send in the medical kit to the PC Medical Office I should hear which country I've been nominated for and exactly what my work project will be! I am super-excited and am very anxious to hear where I will be serving for the next 27 months of my life! Therefore, this will be my blog site for the next two and a half years of this adventure.
