Only Four Days Away From Buenos Aires!

Hello everyone!
I am so excited to leave for Argentina in just four short days. I feel like I have been preparing for this trip for months! I will be posting on this blog so that I can keep all of you, my family and friends, updated while I am overseas. I arrive in Buenos Aires, Argentina on February 1st, and although the daunting task of packing is still ahead of me, I cannot wait. I have been brushing up on my Spanish and eating all of my favorite American foods the past few weeks. I am nervous about living in a new place, and am anxious to meet my host family and get settled in. I will be in South America for three months, and I am living with what seems to be a lovely older couple whose children have all grown up and are out of the house. Since phone calls from me are going to be rare in the next few months, this blog as well as email is the best way to stay in touch with me. Also, remember that Buenos Aires is 5 hours ahead of Pacific Time. Keep me in your prayers, as I hope that God will help me to learn a lot on this trip! Check up on my blog too! I love you all.
Los besos y abraza. ¡Adiós!
