Summer flies

I am getting a little more nervous and excited as September nears and summer flies by. I cannot believe that September comes after August, it seems to be ridiculously soon. I tried watching a Colombian movie a few nights ago, trying to prepare myself and oh boy, I have a ton of catching up to do... I had to put on English subtitles. I have decided to trust in the fact of what everyone is saying about how all my Spanish will come rushing back once I am there.

Update on Colombia... I recently found out I will be living with a host family for the first three months in Bogotá until another YASCer, Laura-Catherine, arrives in January, when we will move together into an apartment. This will be neat, I think I am getting the best of both worlds, a family experience and independence.

First Attempt

This is the first time ever in my entire life I have attempted 'blogging'. I have heard rumors from many others who have traveled far and wide across the world that it is the easiest way to share with others the work I will be doing in Colombia. I will try my hardest to keep this updated with my adventures while abroad, while trying not to overwhelm you with too much text. Photos will be coming soon, so stay tuned and stay in touch!
