Time to start blogging!

In December 2007 I was invited by the Peace Corps to serve in Burkina Faso! While there I will teach science at the middle/high school level. My departure date is tentatively June 8, 2008. Until then I'm having fun organizing my life, deciding what to pack and relearning French (my last class was 9 years ago!). I'm also gathering all the information on Burkina Faso that I can find. My hope is to pass on what I learn via this blog.
