It's Sunday night, and I have a mess of clothes and bug spray and other "developing world necessities" strewn out across my room and into the hall, which will hopefully all find their way into my backpack in the next 24 hours! On Tuesday morning, I'll leave Seattle to catch a plane to Chicago on the first leg of my journey to Managua, Nicaragua. On Wednesday, I'll fly from Chicago to Miami, where I'll meet the rest of my study abroad group... then we'll all fly down to Nicaragua, where we'll be until December 9!
At this point, I know very little about what my next four months will look like, but I hope to keep this blog updated along the way! I'll be splitting my time between cities and rural areas, so there may be periods when I don't update as frequently, but I'll do my best to write as much as I can--and if you're interested in keeping up, I'm grateful for being able to share the experience with you!
In the meantime... I'll include my address here in case anyone feels the urge to write an old-fashioned letter :)

Hey Beautiful,
I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to call you before you left, but I know that you are going to be fine. In fact, I know a million people have probably told you but this will be one of the greatests experiences of your life.
You are strong and God is watching over you and you are there for His purpose. Greet every day as a new gift and breathe in the blessings you've been givin and absorb all you can learn until you feel like you're going to burst (then keep experiencing all you can because it will be over in the blink of an eye).
My suggested goals for you each day are : SEE, MEET, and EAT! :) I love you so much and am living vicariously through you! Zebras are going places this year - OWN IT!
Love Jessica
