This is it people! I am packed and just about ready to go... sort of. I am soooooo tired of packing and unpacking, worrying about whether or not I forgot something, and stressing! So, I have said my "see you laters" to many, including my sweetie Jeff, tonight. Tomorrow morning (at the ungodly hour of 5am), my mom will take me and my suitcases to the airport. I'll head to Washington, D.C. for staging. Then, on Tuesday morning, 55 of us depart for Costa Rica!!!!!
Thank you to all of you who have been so very supportive of this big leap I'm taking. This journey will continue and I am grateful for the opportunity of doing something like Peace Corps!
I posted a picture of my luggage ( I know some were wondering how this diva was going to pack 2 years worth of stuff in 2 bags and a carry-on... I had lots of help.)
I will be in pre-service training for the next three months. If you would like to send me a letter or care package, my address for the next three months will be:
PCT Donna Shanor
Cuerpo de Paz
Apartado Postal 1266-1000
1000 San Jose
Costa Rica
P.S. Peace Corps says: It is recommended that packages be sent in padded envelopes if possible, as boxes tend to be taxed and opened more frequently.
Ok, friends and family. I'm going to bed! I love you all and will miss you dearly. I feel all of your love and good vibes. See you later and I'll post as much as I can on this blog!
PURA VIDA!!!!
