The eve of finding out where I’ll be living and who my counterpart is…the next two years of my life. Not necessarily set in stone, but definitely flexible. I love this. I’ve always been a happy person but I wake up every morning and know that this amazing adventure is put forth in front of me. I’m honored, humbled and of all I want to be here. Where could I go I have no idea. This is truly exciting. Everyone back home is probably just as anxious as I, or they have no idea. Who knows. The day had arrived and everyone is feeling the same way. Let us know! It was good to see everyone again at the HUB. About 10:30 we all headed over to the other school across the street and went to the concrete school yard. There on the ground was a massive chalk drawn map of Bulgaria with a bunch of names of towns spread out around the map. Wow…Bulgaria seemed so small before, but seeing how spread out the towns where was really something else. In groups of five all 63 trainees slowly started to fill up this map on the concrete. My name was called. I had found out where I would be going to be calling home for 2 years. I was heading to the mountains. I’m in the South Central part of Bulgaria in a small mountain village closer to the Aegean Sea than the Black Sea. This is a short post because I will update later.
