The time has finally come to pack up my apartment and move everything to Dallas. Its definitely a bittersweet moment, and I'm not going to lie...I'm kind of scared about what the future holds. I'm leaving a lot behind in San Antonio: my boyfriend, almost all of my best friends, my cross country team, a couple of great part time jobs...not to mention my favorite city in Texas. I know I'll be back to visit, but its still not fun to think about. So instead of packing, I've decided to procrastinate and design my blog for Peru. I really can't wait for June 2nd to roll around...it promises to be a totally exhilarating adventure. I'll be back on July 24th, so don't cry too hard...I promise I'll try to visit everyone before medical school starts. My tentative travel plans are as follows:

June 2nd: Arrive in Lima, Peru
June 3rd-6th: Lima and the Surrounding Area
June 7th: Leave for Ayacucho, Peru
June 7th-July 11th: Volunteering with Cross Cultural Solutions in Ayacucho, Peru
July 12th-July19th: Backpacking (most likely the Salkantay Trek to Machu Pichu via Cusco)
July 20th-22nd: Lake Titicaca/Nazca Lines/back to Lima
July 23rd: Lima, fly home to Texas in the evening
July 24th: Arrive in Texas
