Almost There!!

  So, there are only 3 days left until I fly out of Calgary and head to Peru! I'm so stinking excited, I can't wait! It's a little bitter sweet; leaving my friends and family for 8 weeks, but I'll be having an adventure in the Peruvian Andes and thats pretty cool.
  I got my placement and my accommodations a couple of weeks ago. I'll be staying with the Maria Chavez-Rodriguez and her family in the Wanchaq area of Cuzco (only 10min from downtown), and I'll be working at the Centro de Salud de San Sebastián. This is going to be so much fun.
  Well, that's about it for now. I just have to wait patiently for my plane to leave Wednesday morning!!

So it Begins!

Hello!
   I don't imagine having too many people reading this, which suits me just fine haha. I'm starting this blog to record my experiences during my Project Abroad in Peru this summer. So it will be a while until I'm actually there. 
   I'm going to Peru with Projects Abroad. I just signed up and received most of my acceptance stuff. I'm really excited to be going. I signed up for the Dentistry programme, to gain some experience in the field of dentistry to help bolster my dental school application and to help those I can!
   All I have to do now is save enough money and get everything I need and wait for my departure date (sometime in May, that actual date isn't confirmed yet). So, here I go!
