Its Official!

 

Brand new PCV!

 

We did it!  May 22^nd 2015, Jamaica Group 86 Trainees became official Jamaican Peace Corps Volunteers!  My final site assignment is to help teach literacy in a primary school in St. Elizabeth.  This has already been the journey of a lifetime and it has only just begun.  With the swearing in ceremony complete all of the new volunteers said our goodbyes and we headed off to our new homes scattered throughout the entire island.  So many emotions were occurring with the leaving of the safety of our big group of 36 volunteers to embark on a journey of our own.  This is truly our little birdies flying away from the nest for the first time moment.  But with all of the support from staff, fellow volunteers, our new supervisors, host families, and friends and family from back home I know we will all be successful volunteers and not only fly out of that nest but soar to new heights..  Although it will take some time to get used to our new community and jobs, I believe Dr. Suess summarizes this whole experience best in Oh The Places You'll Go “ You’re off to great places! Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So…get on your way!”
