I am officially homeless! I have moved out of my place in Calgary, and am house-sitting in Okotoks until I leave on my adventures. For my friends and family who aren't quite sure what I'm up to, here is the short version:
October 2011 - visit some friends, and then head out to Asia. I'll be in China for 3 weeks, visiting my friend Kelly and touring around together with Rachel from Calgary. Then I go to India for almost a week, to visit my sponsored child. From there I fly to Thailand, where I'll be doing a 3-week trip with Free and Easy Travel.
December - I go back to visit my family in Telkwa, and enjoy Christmas in beautiful northern BC.
January to June 2012 - I'm doing an internship (through Mission to the World, PCA) with Operation Exodus Inner City (www.operationexodus.org), an educational ministry in Washington Heights, New York. Their mission is to "promote personal growth, high educational achievement, and leadership to under served children, with an emphasis on the Latino community in Washington Heights, through quality out-of-school education, caring mentoring relationship, school placement and parent workshops." (from their website)
I will be sending out more information about my internship in the next week or so, and I'll be making up an email distribution list so that you can receive my updates. So if you want to be included in this, feel free to send me your email address!
