So Where Are You Going?


How Do You Say It?

Briefing Site




The lovely briefing site was some 20 minutes in from the road, down a beautiful dirt path filled with cows, horses and farms for as far as you can see. The vols. really enjoyed the space full of beautiful art, tons of briefing, and some funny skits performed by yours truly: the Supervisors and Senior Staff-

Para Que Sepa-

Chloe (a.k.a Carmen) gives some words of advice: 

To Community and Beyond!

The vols. arrived in Teguc. this past Tuesday, we Supervisors were pretty darn stoked for them, and couldn't help but cheer, clap and scream as they came out of Customs and Baggage Claim..


They on the other-hand didn't have as much energy as we did after the long journey.

    Planning for briefing is tough! So we Supervisors took it upon ourselves to 'escape' Staff House and explore for a bit..





    Who wouldn't want to be a vol. with us?! We are super cute ;)

Meet the Supervisors!
