Our site for the next two years is...León, León. It is the capitol of the department, located on the Pacific. We will be about 30 minutes from the beach, at the base of a volcano, and little more than an hour from Managua. León is home to the largest and oldest university, and is known as the most liberal city in Nicaragua. Does that fit us or what!? The only downfall is that it is a rather touristy city, thus expensive for our itty-bitty Peace Corps budgets. There are a lot of resources for us, NGOs, schools, the university and other volunteers, so we will be busy and happy! Come and visit!!!

Hey Guys. Glad to hear the training phase is almost over. Adam, your glorious flowing locks were amazing. How come you had to cut your hair? My bro had extremely long hair when he was in the Peace Corps. Hope you guys are having a blast.
Pat, Sarah, and Ari
