curious about your experience with Lets Go Volunteer Hi Kate, I'm researching volunteer vacations and would like to hear more about what the problem was with Lets Go Volunteer - if you have a minute, maybe you could email me offline?
Happy Birthday Katie! Hi Katie - Not sure what you could do to top all the many, fabulous adventures you've been having, but I hope you do something really special to celebrate your birthday! Glad to hear that you are taking everything as it comes and enjoying life in Columbia. Love Isabel
You are in Cartegena! Hi friend! Just catching up on your blog posts - sounds like things have been a bit crazy in Cartegena! Hope life has settled down a bit since you wrote this post, and also that you have found a place to live! Muah! Big hugs!
cool Sorry to bother, came accross your blog and liked what you are doing! unfortunately many of us that want to or have volunteered longterm just arent willing to pay a "fee" to volunteer, I understand the money is suppose to go to the children/nature/animals etc, but truth is who would really want to pay fee's to volunteer your time and efforts? especially long term, never made sense to me, but that's just me I guess. I do love what you are doing though! very cool! hope things get better!

Te quermos mucho mi guerita Hola,
Estoy tan orgullosa de ti! Yo estoy bien, bueno mi vida es un carnaval, pero como dicen "echa a delante" sabes estos días me eh sentido muy cansada! será la vejes? O mi vida loca? Dile a tu profe (teacher) como decimos en Mexico que debe hablarte mas español. Como te ha ido con la comida? Cuidate mucho, y recuerda como te queremos por acá. Tu mami, Irma
Hola!
Dije a mi profesor me contesto en español hoy. Despues hablo mas espanol!
la comida es asi asi pero muy barato! No hay mucho frijoles (boo!), pero hay muchas frutas que son riquisimos! Y la pollo es rico tambien. Yo como a la case de voluntarios entonces la comida es bleh.
Espero que tu tienes tiempo para mucho dormir y tu vida te convierte mas tranquila para ti.
Te quiero!
Travel Envy Your first few days seem to be fulllll of life!! The kids are just adorable, do they speak slow easy to understand Spanish? Haha. Are there more volunteers coming to join you soon since the others are leaving? Even though you are a hot, sweaty mess that sounds better than cold, freezingness right now. Alex and I can picture the slums, the music, the people and those toilets that need water to flush and we just CANNOT wait to get outta here. We are definitely expediting our expedition!! We are thinking late Spring instead of early Fall... so cross your fingers it happens even sooner than that! I wish you could have ventured with us this weekend, we took a hike in the far end of Garland and sat upon a meadowy hilltop and today we found a BEACH in Big Sur, like with lotsss of sand and tons of room to lay out on and frolic. Guhh, I miss you!! Love that you\'re posting a blog so we can hear about all your new experiences and adventures and everything else. I can\'t wait to hear about the mountain hike!
The Adventure Has Begun Sounds thrilling, challenging, and exciting. Thanks for sharing with us your wild and fun journey! Can't wait to hear more. I'm praying for you as are others at BidZzar, Inc. Stay safe friend!!!
Gracias! Hola! just saw that i have a commenting and messaging system on this thing! glad to hear you're enjoying the blog so far, i was actually thinking i should send you the link in case you didn't catch it on my fb! hope everything's well at the BZ!
take care and i'll continue to keep trying to keep this blog updated!
