Lara goes to Nicaragua
Lara at Pacaya, Guatemala
Lara
I am headed off on my next adventure which includes the Peace Corps, volcanoes, and numerous unknowns. I hope to be in Nicaragua for the next two years working as an Environmental Education Promoter for the Peace Corps and studying a local volcano for my Master's Degree at MTU. If you want to send me something email me for my address. (The Peace Corps recommends that you do not send boxes as they are taxed and opened more frequently. Padded envelopes are a better option.)
Agua Volcano, Guatemala
