The Best of Both Worlds!

The vols have arrived!! All of my time in Peru so far has led up to this moment.  Earlier in the week all of the supervisors planned briefing.  This included making pages and pages of facilitation guides, buying 50 kilos of mandarine oranges and bananas and 480 packets of cookies!

Briefing was a crazy few days that included a lot of coffee and very little sleep! We had a lot of material to cover and very little time! I think we have a very good group of volunteers and I am very excited to see what they accomplish this summer.

We also had to make the partnerships for the summer so there was one night that we were up until 4:30 making sure everyone had an appropriate community and partnership for the summer.

I head out to route for the first time to visit the volunteers tomorrow, so sorry for the short blog post. But know that everything is okay.  Here a few pictures for you to enjoy :)

My route! They are in 4 different communities throughout the two regions. They named our route "The Best of Both Worlds" because I work in two different regions! 

 The whole group of 56 volunteers!
