SST Preparation!

Hi Everyone!
As you know, I'm about to spend the next 3 months of my life in South America, in Peru. I'll be leaving September 1 and returning December 1! The program is through my school and it's known as the Study Service Term (SST). I will be heading down with 10 other people from my school. We will be taking classes and living in Lima (capital) for the first 6 weeks and living with host families. For the second six weeks, we will be heading out to live with another host family doing service. I will not know what my service project is until the end of the first 6 weeks. I will do my best to keep this blog updated! This is a very exciting time...I have no idea what to expect other than trying some crazy new Peruvian cuisine and exploring one of the seven wonders of the world...MACHU PICCHU!

If you would like to write a letter, you can reach me at:

I will not have a cell phone, or a lap top, but will have access to cyber cafes!

Thank you for following this, and I will hopefully talk to each of you soon!

Until next time,

Ally
