"I will be volunteering abroad in Chile until December, leaving March 16th.
This was a very hard decision to make, but I am now very excited about it. I
hope you can read my blog (my very 1st one) as I spent a long time writing it:

Please see the "How You Can Help" page. I will need much support and inspiration
during my time in Chile from my friends and family. Please keep in touch with me
