I'm off...

In a few minutes I am setting off on a cross country adventure. I will stop in Idaho, North Dakota and Minnesota before my arrival in South Bend, Indiana. I will be spending a month in Indiana. I will be in South Bend attending my first "semester" in the Master in Nonprofit Administration (MNA) program at the University of Notre Dame. Then I am off to New York for a little vacation...and around August 1st I will arrive in Phoenix, Arizona. In Phoenix I will be working at Maggie's Place and taking classes for my MNA online.

I will miss all my friends and family in Portland...but know that I will return someday. Thank you to everyone who share a meal with me to say goodbye and/or gifted me with something for my journey. I am humbled by your generosity...and truly appreciate the opportunity to say goodbye!

Below is my little car packed full of all my stuff. Thanks mom for the vacuum bags and the "BULLY" (car top carrier), I am not sure how I would have been able to get everything in my car...



I will have limited access to email and probably my phone, but will do my best to respond to emails and calls as soon as possible.

Stay tuned for more pics from the road.
