My volunteer group seems to have all found each other on-line and are now sending emails frantically to each other, telling about ourselves & what area of work we are "assigned" to. There are quite a few youth volunteers, as well as appropriate technology (building things i.e. latrines) and a few other small business development like myself. The group, on average, I would say is about 24. There are a couple of others my age. Everybody seems very outgoing & friendly & ready to become fast friends & travel C. America on our free time.
There is also another volunteer from the Portland area, like myself. What are the odds of that!?!
We are going to get together this next week so we can meet. We are actually on the same flight out of down to go to staging in D.C. Kinda funny, she works where I drive by everyday, 5 minutes from my house. Small world!
Well, 18 days and counting til I depart. Now, if this Oregon rain would only clear up...
