it's what i love.

after a very quick application and interview process and then a pretty agonizing 2 weeks of waiting to hear, a couple days ago i was officially offered a position for the summer months in Sri Lanka!!! i will be working for/with a really amazing international ngo (non-governmental organization) based out of chicago.

i still don't have too much information, but i have a tentative departure date of june 12th and i am incredibly excited. it will be an invaluable experience, and i will undoubtedly learn more than i can imagine--about myself, the world, and the mixture there-of.

hopefully i will have a chance to blog/email every once in a while. but if not, i'm sure i'll have plenty to share when i return in the end of august.

i'll post if/when i know more, but i wanted to make sure to put the word out there, so people that want to know, do! i hope to see you before i leave! i can't make any definitive promises, but call or email if you're around or if you have any other questions.

love and peace to you!

oh, and if you don't already know the musician m.i.a., she's sri lankan and amazing! so check her out HERE and have a dance party for me!
