Overview

Family, Friends--

Hi!! Thanks for visiting my blog! I'm heading off to Argentina on Feb. 5th and will be independently volunteering with a non-profit organization called L.I.F.E. until March 1st. L.I.F.E. stands for Luchemos para una Infancia Feliz y Esperanza (We strive for a childhood of happiness and hope.) Here's the website-- http://www.lifeargentina.org/-- if you're interested in taking a look!

On March 1st, I will begin my study abroad program! There are 3 other St. Olaf students and an unknown number of students from around the U.S. who are all doing this study abroad program through the organization, I.E.S. I will live with a host family and take classes at the Universidad de Buenos Aires! The program ends on the 27th of June.

I will update the blog as often as I can-- and hope to hear from all of you!

Peace, Michaela
