Big news!

Happy October!
It's going to be a fresh, amazing start for me this month!
The slow season is over here and things are starting to really pick up.
Those of you who follow my blog probably know I am a volunteer at a used bookstore for LigaMAC.
LigaMAC is an organization the helps families in crisis here in San Jose Del Cabo, Mexico.
All of the money from the store, donations, and events all go towards the families.
During this journey I have meet some very wonderful people in the community. People who take long hours out of their day to help these families.
Since everything is picking up, I will now be working in the office of LigaMAC as well.
Today was my second day and they did orientation for those who have scholarships with them to go to school.
It was great to see all of these students wanting to further their education and it makes me feel great that I am helping them to do so.

I was asked a couple things today that really made my day.
First, they asked me if I could run an art project for a group of kids coming in on Wednesday the 5th. I have ideas planned out and everything.
Second, I was asked to become a personal tutor for this really nice guy who is my age and furthering his education into a university.
I am excited for my new journey, it will be busy and some hard work, but I know what I am doing is right and it feels good to give back to this community of people.

I have some photos I need to edit from another trip to Todo Santos that I will be putting up shortly.

Thank you to all of those who encourage me to go for what I love in life!
