Hello family and friends!
I leave in a few short hours to embark on a new chapter of my life. I am quite nervous but very excited to finally be in El Salvador. I will be studying in the capital of El Salvador, San Salvador, as well as serving in the community. I will be living with the other American students in one of three houses. We will attend class together but be more or less separated while working in the community. The idea of the program is to live in solidarity with the people around us and to learn to live a more simple and meaningful life. Our classes will directly relate to what we are experiencing and there will be a lot of time to reflect and discuss our experiences.
I am keeping an open mind as I do not fully know what to expect. But I know I have a lot of support from my friends and family at home which is definitely making this possible. I will do my best to keep up with this blog and post pictures as they come.
Peace,
Claire
