Exciting News!! We Have a Home in Belize!!!!!!

Today we found out the name of the village we will be living in: Otoxha!!! Its a small Kechki Mayan village very close to the Guatemala border. It sounds like we will be living with our area leader who is a Mayan woman that is very active in the community. We will be working in that village as well as in the villages of Corazon and Dolores, which will require us to stay in shape with 30 min bike rides each way! We will be working on nutrition and hygiene, literacy, and helping out with the new baby chickens the family recieved! We are absolutely ecstatic. These are the areas that we have really been vocusing on in our preparation and now that we know that we will for sure be using them a lot we are excited to prepare even more! Its so exciting to know that we now have a home and a, or 3 villages  that are waiting for us to arrive! Here are some pictures that we got from Pantaleon the project leader. Enjoy!
