AN ADDRESS

Hey all, I have an address. Be warned though, it can take up to 3 months for mail to come in. I may not receive that awesome Vancouver/Edmonton/Halifax/Costa Rican/wherever post card/letter for quite some time. I am not sure how fast my mail will get out there either.
In other fun news, my orientation is finished and now all I really have left to do for the trip is get on the plane. It was a good time getting to know people at the WEC base here in Hamilton. I guess my next update should come from a far off land if all goes as planned.

I am in Hamilton

Greetings from Hamilton, Ontario. I am at the WEC headquarters and it is good times all around. I am doing the orientation for my trip this week with a group of three guys from Winnipeg. They are about my age and its been good times getting to know them a bit. We get a bit of free time here but for the most part its either class or doing renovations on the old WEC house. Its pretty huge and sweet, but on the inside it needs a bit of a fixer-upper. My flight to Bissau is getting closer and closer. Tomorrow I get to start taking Malaria pills. It should not be long before I am gone. I will probably miss some stuff in this country a bit, but ya. I will probably blog again before I am gone.

I am in Toronto

Hello all, I am at my friends house in Toronto. We have had a splendid couple of days and I am just about to depart for my orientation in Hamilton. That is about all I have to inform about today. I am really just testing out this blog thing as that first "test" titled blog was done by a friend of mine. Hopefully this works and you all think it is an awesome fun time to read.
