One Week!

It's finally here. I take off for the motherland tomorrow and the nerves finally set in last night after some last minute phone calls and final hang-outs with the local family. In one week our entire Serve to Learn team will be together to set off on our adventure. I've been to Egypt a number of times now but never have I been this anxious to go. Leaving the country alone for the first time is an experience in itself, but this is also the first time in which I will be visiting Egypt not as a tourist but ready for a totally different adventure. I can't say my bags are fully packed as I head off to do all my last minute shopping today, but I am definitely ready for Ismalaia and all it has to throw at me.

Your STL blogger,

Mary
