Conrad and I applied for Peace Corps over a year ago and have been anxiously awaiting the final departure date in about a week. Here is our time line throughout our application process:
December 2009: submitted applications
January 2010: interview at University of Florida
March 2010: received nomination for the Caribbean leaving Jan-March 2011
July 2010: completed and sent medical packet
October 2010: received confirmation that medical packet was accepted
November 2010: medically cleared
January 2011: received confirmation that we would not be placed in nomination program in Caribbean
February 2011: received invitation to Moldova
May 2011: quit job and moved out of Florida
It's been a long road and lots of bumps along the way, but we are very excited to start this new adventure :)
Miss you guys already!! I hope you made it there safely! I can't wait to ready the first update on life in Moldova :)
