I had this great idea when I was 16 that I would one day join the Peace Corps. About three months ago I got a wild hair (hare?) and applied. Today I checked my mailbox to find I had been medically cleared for service--I'm in.
As of today I still don't know where I'm going, but I have a general idea of when (august) and once I know these things this blog will become infinitely more interesting as I don't have much to report as yet.
And although I don't yet know where I'll go, I've read some fantastically inspirational stories about spending two years shitting in a hole in the ground, trying to avoid offending the village by swallowing everything from a cow's tongue to his testicles (I've heard both are salty), and the almost guarantee that I will get malaria, or some other infectiously fun malady. So bear with me folks, here we go...

Hey Sam. I'm going back through your blog. Cow tongues and testicles, hmmmm... Better you than me. Aunt Lisa
