Preparing to leave

I am anxiously counting down the days until I depart for Uganda. On February 8th I fly to Philadelphia for a brief orientation before making the long trek to Uganda. I do not yet know where I will be staying in-country but I do know that the first three months will be filled with intensive language training and prepping me to teach. Near the end of my training I will find out where I will be teaching. I am studying what I can of the Lugandan language and will post more once I start out on my adventure. Pray for me that I am able to get everything ready in time and that I have safe travels.
