First post!

This blog is about my trials and tribulations, living and volunteering in Bolivia for one year. I'm volunteering with the Salesian Sisters of St. John Bosco through a group called VIDES+USA (Volunteers International for Development, Education and Solidarity) and during this year, I'll be working in an orphanage and school for girls. It's been many years in the making to find the right group, do all the footwork and turn this dream into reality. The title of this blog is "Be The Change" and it comes from one of my favorite quotes by Ghandi which is, "Be the change you wish to see in the world." This journey, for me, is one small step towards becoming that change.
