Hasta Luego

As most of you know I'll be spending the next 10 months or so in San Juan, Argentina studying, teaching, and doing service projects with the Rotary Foundation (http://www.rotary.org/) as an Ambassadorial Scholar.... basically trying my best to build some bridges between Rotary organizations on the two continents. The foundation has never sent a student to San Juan before which is A) very cool in the trailblazing kind of way but B) nervewracking in the "I have absolutely NO contacts and will just show up and hope for the best" kind of way. We'll see...

As I write this I am very nervous about the prospect of arriving in a new town to start an entirely new life but know that I am ready for an adventure (four months of knocking on doors has most definitely prepared me ;). I currently have a plane ticket (arriving in Buenos Aires March 16th and San Juan March 17th) and a two-day reservation at the Triasico Hostel. Other than that, nothing is for sure so I'll have lots to figure out once there. At least I'll be figuring it out in the lovely 80 degree heat :)

I will miss everyone dearly but hope that you will all keep me updated about the goings on in Nashville, NC, MN, and everywhere else you are, and I will do the same from San Juan. And if you ever feel like spending some time in the mountains of Argentina my casa (or perhaps room) will always be open to visitors. I am here:



Hasta Luego! ~Alyson
