So I have some news that I'm still trying to grasp myself. I will be moving to a new site in the near future. I can't tell you where yet, or when, because I don't myself know. Until Peace Corps and I know, I'm stuck in Lima in limbo.
This is really hard for me; I'm struggling to wrap my head around the concept. Will I have to leave my group of friends from my area? I love our little group of people. Will I move to a place with trees? I'd love to have trees to work with. I'm still reeling a little bit.
I literally just accepted that I will be moving as I wrote my first sentence on here. Up until this morning I was still saying I'm going to try to fight to stay in Vicco. But based on the arguments for my safety, I've been convinced. I just...have to totally reset my mind and open up for another site? It's like getting wiped clean and starting over; I don't know what to expect.
Then again, I do know what to expect. I know who I need to talk to, and this time around I'll be ABLE to. I have my ideas, more experience, and more confidence. So, I'm doing my best to be flexible, and positive. I'll let you guys know more when I can.
I am very glad to hear they've stepped up to work with you on getting it all resolved. You will do amazing at a new site. With all you did at the old site surrounded with such difficulties, you will thrive in a new better place.
