It's official---I'm headed to Costa Rica. This realization finally set in after cutting my long hair back to what I was told is a "Matt Damon" style haircut. This may come as a shock to some of you (especially those of you who have never known me with short hair), but I'm actually pretty pleased with it. The flow will be back, though.
Now the good stuff: I'll be doing a homestay in San Jose (the capitol city) for 2 months, and sandwiched in between these two months I'll be researching the Olive Ridley sea turtle in the very northwestern corner of Costa Rica. For the most part I'll be keeping these blog posts short and sweet---I refuse to bore you all with the minutiae of my everyday life! Instead I'll post cool pictures, tell a quick story, or update you on the issues facing the Costa Rican environment (yeah!).
Lastly, I'll be posting the link to my blog on facebook whenever I make a new post, and feel free to leave comments and say what's up on the blog.
Be well, wherever you are,
Paul
