So IHP has been really interesting the past few days. We're finally just about done with the various orientations, and we're starting to get down to business. Yesterday was a free day and it was really nice to be able to sleep in and take a chill day. I went to brunch on the corner with Joel, one of the other guys on the trip, and brunch was way cheap. I spent some time in a used book store and then went out for Chinese with Joel and two of the remaining three guys from the trip.
Today was MLK day, so we all did a morning of service and then had our first class. I went with some other people over to the Independent Living Program, a home for 16-18 year olds, and we cleaned some closets and organized shelves for them. It was nice to get out of William Penn House (the place we're staying) and do something productive.
So far the people are awesome and I'm having a lot of fun. Now we're beginning to hunker down and get going, and I am excited to see how things go.

Spring 2010 I am embarking on a journey across four continents, and this blog will be my voice home.
