5 Days Until Departure

Welcome back!

I will be using this again this summer to blog what I do in the Dominican Republic. I won't have a phone during this time, but will have Skype and email, so if you need to (for some reason) contact me please email me at katiejerdee@gmail.com. If need be, I can call you over Skype. 

I will be in Santo Domingo May 9 - June 6. The group of 20 NU students will be working with urban and poor communities to set up 5 new village banks (along the same lines as my work last year in Africa). I will then travel to Haiti, Jamaica, and Cuba until June 16. THEN I'll return to Boston. In the capital, we will be staying at the Plaza Colonial.

I'll be uploading my pictures to http://picasaweb.google.com/KatieJerdee again this year, so check that out as well!
