This Blogger idea is going to be a great way for me to keep my family and friends updated on my world in Costa Rica. Thanks to Maria and Michael for the grand idea. So I leave in just about two weeks for my PC staging in Washington, DC. Hey, don't I already live there? Yes, but this will be different. Have I actually ever stayed the night in the city? No. So it will be fun to experience DC in a different way than normal with all of my new PC friends.
I am ready to go. Well, mentally anyway. I still need to buy a few things yet and actually pack. Finishing up my job at Bombay would probably be a good idea also. I wish I could figure out a great gift idea for the two host families I will be living with. Something travelable and inexpensive yet nice with America written all over it (OK, well not literally). Any ideas?
