So, I am less than two weeks away from leaving for Russia. I got my visa yesterday, despite mad complications with the work invitation, and I am ready (more than ready) to head out!! After 9 weeks at Middlebury, Russia should be a breeze.
On the host family front, I still haven't been able to get anyone on the phone, but I'll be living with Natalia Vladomirovna and, allegedly, her daughter. Other than that, I know absolutely nothing about them.
I'm REALLY excited to get started teaching, and I already have a topic for my cultural presentation: Stories of the Northwoods. I'm going to talk about Paul Bunyan, dream catchers, and Jesse James. (Props for the talk and the general idea came from my grandma, lots of love and thanks, Chi!!!)
