Although we may not be keeping on top of our blogging our team has been BUSY! We have been meeting as a group about twice a month. We spend our time together discussing the countries we will be visiting (Nicaragua, El Salvador, Costa Rica and Panama), practicing our presentations, planning what to take with us and of course - snacking! Our group knows how to set out quite the feast.
Our last meeting we were lucky to have the District Governor Nominee, Karen Sekich, join us. It was a perfect time for her to visit as it was the day we were discussing Nicaragua. Karen's experience in Nicaragua really helped us to prepare better for our visit to this country. I'm sure she will be hearing from us again before we leave! Thank you Karen for your insight!

I can't believe it is already December! The countdown has officially begun... just over 2 months and we will be on our way to Central America. This thought has me both excited and a little nervous....
I've never really been the real adventurous type...I leave the cliff jumping, "I'm not sure what this is but I'll eat it anyways", let's fly by the seat of our pants stuff to my little sister (wave to Megan). However, this does not mean that I'm boring! I've done a lot of things that most of my friends can't say they've done (who do you think introduced little sister to the world of ice climbing and splunking). But I like to know what's going on, what will happen next, how will this end.... So when I decided at the very last possible second to apply for the GSE program I don't know if I really thought out what it would mean if I were actually chosen and how this would change my plan - "The Plan".
But the unknown is good for me. I've realized that I can't be a "I'll just test the water with my toe" kind of girl. This experience requires a full dive in!
