I'm in Panic mode here - In a few hours, I leave for Piedras Negras, Honduras! I'm going with the program Sustainable Harvest International to help plant gardens and build ovens, while staying with a host family in the community. I'm absolutely thrilled to be going on this trip with a group from Hancock UCC, and I've been looking forward to it for weeks!
That said, I have not been packing for weeks. I'm not finished packing yet and I leave in less than 5 hours! Everything is in dry bags and ziploc bags, and, for the most part, organized. The dryer should be finished running by now, so I can pack my clothes. Then I'll just photocopy my passport, blow dry my hair, and hop in bed for a few hours, only to hop out and be on my way! (Thanks, mom, for the ride tomorrow morning at 5:15am!) Wish me luck! Hasta leugo!
Hi. My name is INgrid and I'm writing you from www.hesperian.org, publishers of Where There Is No Doctor. Thank you so much for reading it! Looks like you've got great taste in books - Tracy Kidder is wonderful. While you're in Honduras, you might want to also use the Spanish edition, Donde no hay doctor. It's available for free download here (along with many other great health books in Spanish and English: http://www.hesperian.org/publications_downloads.php
