In 24 days I'll leave Seattle and head for Salvador, Brazil. I'm am going to be doing some volunteer work there with Cross Cultural Solutions. Right now I'm working on getting ready to go. I've got my plane ticket, passport, and visa... swim suit, shorts, t-shirts.... I'm learning Portuguese.... I'm thinking about what I will need to pack... and just waiting... 24 days isn't really that long.... (I've been counting down from 90 days) but I'm looking forward to going....
