Hello everyone!
I arrived in Nicaragua safely on Wednesday and have been in training in Managua(the capital city) until now. I am all packed up to head to my host family´s house today. For the next eleven weeks I will be training for Spanish with a personal tutor, learning sustainable ag techniques by traveling to other Peace Corps Volunteer´s site, and learning the culture simply by living with my host family!
I appoligize if this page is not updated for those eleven weeks as the training will be very busy and may keep me in rural locations without internet!
