Ready to Head Out. Hoo-RAH!

It's the night before I embark on my journey to Managua. All the packing is pretty much done and now just closing up a few loose ends around home with friends and family. It's a pretty intimidating task trying to pack for almost 2.5 months, but two bags did the trick OK. Overall, I'm pretty excited about the trip, though also slightly nervous. Hopefully all will be well in Nica, as the country is affectionately called. I can't wait to see for myself how everything looks and feels (hopefully not too hot) down south. Anyways, I'll be updating my blog often with pictures, comments on life in Managua, and other assorted anecdotes.
