It's finally that time- we're leaving Bluefields for Monkey Point tomorrow! The past 48 hours have been totally hectic with last-minute meetings, shopping trips, and packing. In spite of the exhaustion I'm very excited for the trip. We have so many plans for the stay in Monkey Point- teaching, organizing, empowering, and just living with people, learning from them, and giving back what we can. It's going to be awesome!
I'll miss the yummy meals at the blueEnergy house, the air-conditioned office, the cold beer, the camaraderie of the fellow volunteers, and the Bluefields culture that I'm coming to love more and more. Yes, this city is an interesting, lively place. But what can compare to living in Monkey Point? Beans and rice fried in coconut milk, fresh fish, johnny cake, swimming, beach soccer, mangoes, not to mention the work we'll be doing with the Energy Commission and in the school. We're going to be busy! But it's going to be a good, fun busy. I can't wait!
So goodbye to Bluefields, the blueEnergy office, workshop, and volunteers. Goodbye to cars, loud music, cold beer, ice cream, pavement...the good and the bad... See you in a few weeks when we're back for a quick break.
