This is another test.

This is a test.

And we’re off!

After a wonderful Thanksgiving with my family in New York, I’m en route   to Miami (hooray for in-flight WiFi!)

From Miami, I take an overnight flight to Lima and a third flight to Iquitos the following day. I’m thrilled, excited and nervous all at once!

For those of you just arriving, this is day one of a month long adventure volunteering in Iquitos with Amazon CARES. I will be twittering (CourtneyCARES) and updating this blog with posts, photos and videos of our work as often as I can.

Please comment, email and send questions or comments my way. I will have fairly regular access to the internet and am happy to answer reader mail.
