Boston!

Hi everyone! I'm in Boston for staging and I'm loving it so far.  Just met my roomate at the hotel and she actually went to school at Wash U in STL.  It's comforting to have something in common with one of the volunteers already!  Tonight I will be meeting the other volunteers, or as Rachel likes to say, my family for the next two years.  I'm extremely excited for what's ahead of me and can't wait to take off for Cape Verde tomorrow night!  Thank you Mom and dad for helping me prepare for this trip and thanks to everyone for all of the wonderful goodbye wishes!
