Vamos a regresar a Nicaragua en cinco dias.

Mucho trabajo, poco tiempo

We are still translating, getting presentations ready, and packing. And yes, doing some research. I ask my students to research best practices and be familiar with the communities that they will be working with.  So, I am doing the same research that I would ask my students to do. And did I mention my attempts to habla espanol! Mucho difícle.

This is a similiar, but a  new adventure than Peru. The work will be similiar, but the community is different so the experience will be different. The country, the food and the culture will be different. Nicaragua is the second poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. 79.9% of the population live with less than $2 per day! ¿Qué piensas tú?

Many of you know I love to cook and eat! As a result many of you have asked about the food. Perhaps you are asking because it is an essential ingredient of culture! No cuy (guinea pig) on this trip. I think more rice and beans. The climate will be caliente as we will be near the equator!

I’m counting down the days and doing my preparation work. Last year I was glad to have the comments on my blog and have my peeps be with me. So, stay with me during my travels.
