Less Than Two Months!

June 1st is fast approaching. Previously I felt like time was standing still, and now it seems like it is slipping by quickly. Things I want to accomplish/do before I leave:

  1. Take the GRE (and rock it)

  2. Learn a good amount of French

  3. Learn a lot of Bambara (the language most spoken in Mali)

  4. Trip to Florida (planned)

  5. Trip to Michigan and to hike with Steve on the Appalachian Trail

  6. Enjoy the Minnesota outdoors as much as possible!
I've been reading blogs of Mali Peace Corps Volunteers (PCVs) and I think I need to stop so I don't get too many expectations in my head of how the experience will be. It is helpful however, to look at packing lists to see what PCVs have found useful to bring. I'm looking forward to this new adventure!
