Hey everyone! Hopefully your fall is in full swing and your looking forward to whatever is ahead of you in your daily schedules. I certainly am excited for in less than a week our SST group is heading out to Cuzco for our mid-point field trip before the second half of our time on SST begins.

What does that mean? Two, very exciting things. Number one, I will soon be setting foot in Macchu Picchu, one of the NEW seven wonders of the world. And, as soon as I´m done scavenging around in the lost city of the Incas, I will be traveling an hour south for my service assignment.

There will be three guys from the group at this location. I will be teaching English to students, while the other two will be working in a greenhouse. We´re all quite excited about our assignments, and being up in the mountains with some CLEAN air to breath.

Service will be an adjustment too. I know that it will be a lot more rural than Lima, and big city life is something that I love. At the same time, I´m incredibly excited to do some hiking and be in another area of the country for a while. Some room to breath will be nice!

I´m looking forward to sharing some of my favorite pictures with you all upon my return in December. For now, I´ll leave you with the promise to update at least once more before I return home. ¡Cuidados!
