And we're off!

Well, I leave for Rwanda in less than a week.  It's going to be a busy week, full of packing, Christmas, family, freaking out and more packing.

I know a bit more information now about where I will be.  I'll be teaching at Rusumo High School, in the town of (you guessed it) Rusumo, Rwanda.  Look it up on Google Maps, it's right near the Tanzanian border.  I'll be living a fair distance from the school, and I will not have electricity or running water at home.

Apparently, there is somewhere nearby where I'll be able to use the Internet, so I will try to post whenever I can, as well as putting up as many pictures as I can, but who knows how often that will be...?  Regardless, I'll be in Kigali for a couple of weeks first, so I should be able to post while I'm there.

I hope everyone has a great holiday, and I will see you all in about a year!
