I have received and accepted my invitation to serve in the Peace Corps. I am excited to be going to Ghana, where I will be teaching Visual Arts at the Cape Coast School for the Deaf. I am beginning to feel the pressure as June 2nd is just around the corner. My next adventure is going to be upon me as soon as i finish my bicycle ride, giving me about 2 weeks to pack, tie up any loose ends, and to say goodbye to my friends and family. I expected this day to come, but without all the details it didn’t seem real. Now with the assignment sitting in front of me with a departure date set in stone, I am wondering…
“what did I sign up for again?”
