I have been getting packing ideas mostly from the current Botswana volunteers. Their Facebook page had a ton of information, and we started one for our new group, too, and the current volunteers have been answering all of our packing questions. The packing info that came with my invite was pretty limited, so the other blogs and FB group has been really helpful. But the other volunteers keep telling us not to worry about it too much and so that's what I'm trying to do!Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02693879878994980414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2446216814457123982.post-74788612578813207782011-01-27T22:57:41.324-05:002011-01-27T22:57:41.324-05:00Aww thank you for the kind wishes!

How do you know what to pack exactly? I am waiting my invite in the mail, so I am hoping they provide some pretty extensive info for packing.natalie.petruccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14027026719563071488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2446216814457123982.post-68410912268027407402011-01-27T17:14:33.839-05:002011-01-27T17:14:33.839-05:00Thanks for the good wishes Tracy!

Between the medical costs, travel for interview, etc. and then the waiting time between invitation and departure, I have spent lots of money. The more time I have, the more stuff I feel like I need to buy, which is just really silly and probably counter-productive. <br /><br />Yes! That's so cool that you're from Victor! It is a small world. I "met" another applicant from Rochester online recently- she just did her interview a couple of weeks ago: http://kellyashworth.wordpress.com/<br />Small world!Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02693879878994980414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2446216814457123982.post-19031112884010692622011-01-27T02:01:22.914-05:002011-01-27T02:01:22.914-05:00I'm DYING of RIS.

I've started picking away at buying things, but since June is so far away, there's really no point. ughhh. but now I have the Snapshots project to get excited about :)<br /><br />sidenote: I see you're from Brockport.
