A quick note to let everyone know I arrived! Thank you to everyone who prayed for my safe travel to Nazareth! The journey was long and more and less uneventful with only one unfortunate instance of racing between flights. Last one on board to Tel Aviv!
Not yet a full 24 hours here in Israel, but already I am in love with the place! So far I have been acquainted with just the Hospital Compound and my living arrangements. I am living with two other American girls in a gorgeous flat attached to the hospital. We have tons of space and a fantastic view of the city (Nazareth Hospital is located atop a hill). This afternoon we're headed down to take a tour of Nazareth Village and then meeting more new volunteer friends for dinner. It has been a FULL day of touring the grounds and learning about the hospital and program. I am beyond excited for what's ahead and can't wait to start volunteering later this week.
I promise to upload pictures soon and write much more as soon as I can!
Oh What! It sounds so great--what an experience!
