We had our swearing in ceremony at the ambassador's residence here in Peru. Our host families went too. It was EXTREMELY formal. I felt very out of place. Afterwards we mingled in her backyard which was part garden, part heaven. Her home is beautiful - Spanish style, rustic, elegant, long driveway, grass trimmed and green, everything dusted and polished. I shook the ambassador's hand afterwards too. She was very kind to do that. Our hands do so many amazing things. My hands have so much responsibility. I am honored to have this opportunity.
I officially am a Peace Corps volunteer. Dreams come true. Believe in yourselves.
