Today is the day!

Today is the day that I am leaving for Guatemala! This afternoon I'll be flying out to Atlanta where I'll spend the night so that I can fly to Guatemala tomorrow morning and take a bus to Xela before it starts to get dark out. I'll be able to meet my host family and settle into my room before classes start Monday morning. I still have a few things to do today before I leave, but already I'm starting to get excited! I know the first week or so will be hard since I'll still be figuring everything out and I won't be able to communicate very well, but I'm praying that I get a great host family and that I can adjust quickly. I'm gonna try to keep everyone updated on how and what I'm doing on this blog so that I don't have to email a million people all about the same things, so keep checking back :)
