Argentina!

First, Lena--you and I need to talk soon! Come live with me! :-)

Okay, now I can continue. :-) I wanted to write a quick note to fill you all in, as I'm limited on time and trying to pack up the last remnants of my apartment before moving Saturday. I recently decided to take the opportunity to get my Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) Certification and to continue my Spanish studies, and albeit a stressful organizing process, it seems my plans are coming together. I'm leaving September 3 for Buenos Aires, Argentina. I'm starting the TEFL program the following Monday and will be living in student housing for that month. After I get my certification, I'll hopefully find a room in a shared apartment and get a job quickly so I can teach while I do Spanish immersion classes and travel! My return date is scheduled for March 8; however, I will have some flexibility to change it if I decide I'd like to come home or stay longer (I foresee staying longer! Eeeek!). Either way, I'm anxious but very happy about my imminent adventure. I'm also extremely thankful that this has come together so well. Everyone is welcome to visit! Hope you all are doing wonderfully! I miss you all very much and would love it if you could let me know if you have Gmail or Skype webcam access so we can videochat and stay up-to-date with one another.

Love,

Nora XOXO
