Who am I. Well, I am a 25 year old female, from Frederick, Maryland, and have put in my notice at the design firm I've been working at since graduation. Why? Because I am about to embark on what is sure to be my biggest adventure yet. I have joined the Peace Corps and am going to be living as the locals do in Uzbekistan for the next two years. So really, who I am is a question I am trying to answer myself. So for now, Ill just let what I'm doing and where I'm going speak for me and maybe, if it is even important or really significant, I will let the world know exactly who I am, questionnaire style, at a later date.
Let me warn you all, I am by no means a writer, 'tis a gift I was not given (but truly wish I had). That said, I believe that this fantastic journey I am about to experience, is not only worthy, but it's main purpose is to make my friends and family, and anyone else who is interested, aware of the pulse of the people outside our own small version of life. I feel that that is more important and is what this world needs, more than anything I can share with these new people I am about to meet. So, I shall try my best to channel this strange and upsidedown land through this blog. And again, please excuse the botching of the English language, hopefully get past it and grab a cup of joe, sit and enjoy. Remember to share your thoughts with me, quiz me, intrigue me, whatever strikes you.
Departure for Uzbekistan: January 16th
Stay tuned...
