Pack Up for New Mexico or Blog Instead??
So I am less than a week away from my departure date for my cross country trip to New Mexico.About a month ago I interviewed for the Americorps VISTA (Volunteer In Service To America) position in Pinehill, NM with the Ramah Navajo on the Native Americans to Work Program. In the same day I interviewed I was offered the position and accepted. I In the past month since I have accepted the Americorps VISTA placement my life has been non-stop whirlwind between working at my temp position full time, packing up,coordinate moving, and trying to find housing in New Mexico. Some of the biggest shocks I have encountered is finding out more about living out there. For one I have found that trying to find housing quite a challenge (still haven't figured it all out). Second, I have learned that I will be the only VISTA on site. Third, I will not have much access to cell service and Internet. However, I am totally excited to be going. Well I would write more but I need to do some packing!
