After spending 5 months in Costa Rica's Central Valley, I returned to Wisconsin via a monumental bus/road-trip with my dad through Central America, Mexico, and the southern U.S./Route 66. After spending some time at home with family and friends, I'm on to my next adventure in Miami, Florida.Erin Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07888489492760431897noreply@blogger.comBlogger71100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6414699625475642646.post-39683616456906994662009-10-02T16:57:00.019-04:002009-10-02T18:30:17.778-04:00

It's now the end of my 2nd week here in South Florida, and I'm not too much closer to being "settled in", really. But I've had a 3rd interview (yesterday) for the job with South Florida Urban Ministries, and I think there's just one more stage left, which will be to head up to Pompano Beach (the location of the program I'd be coordinating) to meet with some of the other programs that SFLUM

1. Dress properly - put on the shortest pair of shorts or skirt you can find, add a skimpy t-shirt or tank top, and throw on some flip-flops. NOTE: This attire not highly recommended for interviews or church. ;-)2. Love your air-conditioner - in the house, in the car, in the mall, in the restaurants, in the movie theater. In short, choose activities that are a/c-friendly.3. If you must be

I arrived to Miami on Wednesday, July 1st, so I'm officially a resident of South Florida, though my driver's license doesn't show it yet...figured I'd wait until I actually have my own address to change that. :-)Had a 2nd interview yesterday with South Florida Urban Ministries for a Site Coordinator position with their Branches after-school/mentoring program. Really like the program and the

Greetings from Miami!I hope you are enjoying your summer and taking plenty of time to relax, enjoy the weather, and perhaps even travel a bit! As many of you already know, I returned from Costa Rica in April. However, rather than simply taking a quick flight to Wisconsin, my dad agreed to take the adventurous route with me, embarking on a 2-week road trip from Costa Rica to Wisconsin. Here are

Since I have so many wonderful friends and family I want to keep in contact with as I move about and have new adventures, and since my "mass email" idea really didn't pan out (1 email in 5 months of living in Costa Rica...not my original plan...), I thought I'd give this blogging thing a try. So, hopefully by writing short, more frequent notes, I'll be keeping everyone up-to-date on my life on a
