Hello friends and family!! My name is Jade Jackson and I am the Assistant Project Manager for the El Farito bathroom project. I am a junior in Chemical Engineering and Chemistry at THE University of Texas at Austin, and I am sure I speak for the whole team when I say that we are so excited for this amazing opportunity. We arrived last night at the Managua Airport already missing our technical advisor, Justin, and our team member, Rita. Their flight got delayed due to mechanical problems and so they will be arriving around midday today. The rest of us, Julie, Madeline, Rosie, Chase, and I, met up at the airport and rode to our hostel where we were reunited with our team members, Abdul, Katrina, and Laura. Not to our surprise they had made friends in Nicaragua, two English engineering students who had just graduated from University and were traveling. We spent last night sharing stories and enjoying the reality of actually being in Nicaragua. This afternoon will be our first time on site. We will be having orientation with our NGO, walking around the Cedro Galan community, and looking at our septic tank, which was finished last week. We are here, and we are ready to change the world. Hook 'Em \m/

Love it!!!

I hope Justin and Rita made it there safely and are as relaxed as you all look in this picture :) I'm missing you guys already and can't wait to get there Monday to see what you've completed on the construction and get to know the Cedro Galan community as well.
