host family and community service project

Since the last time I posted I have found out a lot of stuff about my program. I got an email from an Austrian girl named Ana in Paraguay who im going to be working with at a guaderia in the capital city of Asuncion. I will be working with poor but happy kids abut 3-6 years old. She is also helping me out with practicing my castillian and learning some of the guarani they use down there. I also got an email from AFS about my first host family. I say first because I apparently will only be staying with them for two weeks before I move to another undisclosed family. Im not really sure why but I don't really mind. They are the Zaputovich-Valiente family and apart from mother and father they have a boy a couple months older then me and a girl that is about 21. I just sent them an email yesterday and am looking forward to talking in castillian with them. Also today I got my yellow fever and typhoid shots and on monday I get my hepatitis a shot and malaria pills. All this stuff is really starting to hit me know, and with chisato gone its crazy how close I am to leaving. Getting pretty excited

Closer....

Alright so i basically have 2 weeks until i leave for DC. Im going to stay there for a couple of days for my gradpas 75th birthday and then fly to Miami then to Chile and finally Paraguay. I guess I leave Cheyenne on June 21 and return around August 13. Im getting pretty excited and I suppose I should start packing and practicing my spanish more. oh and get some shots probably.
I got a email the other day that AFS is working with a specific family for me, but that I couldn't have any details since it isn't finalized yet. But this means I sould have a host family and community very soon, so as soon as I find out I will document it here.
