This is where I'll meet my whole group and get some immunizations and it's also a good opportunity for last outs if anyone decides that this just isn't for them. I thought I'd send a quick update email to everyone before I get all wrapped up in the swing of things, shipped off to a new country, and deprived of electricity and internet.<br /><br /><br />Thank you so so so much to all of my very thoughtful family members and friends. It is very hard to tear yourself away from such amazing people who I love so much. Believe me I had many tearful goodbyes and moments in which I thought "why in the world would I leave all these wonderful people?" but you only have yourselves to blame. Its because of your unwavering support and encouragement that I even feel capable of packing up my life for two years and moving to Ecuador. I know I am very very lucky to have people so close to me no matter how far away I go. So thank you and I love you very much.<br /><br /><br />This is my attempt at a blog for keeping in touch. Let me know if you have trouble reading it or if it doesn't work or anything like that. I will try to keep it updated without clogging your email boxes. I always always love long emails so send 'em my way!<br /><br />I'm sure there will be plenty more to come, but I thought I'd give this a test run. I have my cell phone for a few more days if you want to give me a call!<br /><br />Love,<br />CaseyUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0
