40 days and counting

I've got to admit. When I first applied to go overseas with VSO ICS, I never expected it to become a reality and certainly never expected it to be Bangladesh. However, with the fundraising target of £800 hit and only one more rabies vaccine to go, the reality that, in just over a month I will by flying to Bangladesh where I will be spending the next three months is starting to hit. Time is flying by and there is still so much that needs to get done before leaving the UK.

The training weekend in Birmingham was a couple of weeks ago and, though training was intense, I greatly enjoyed meeting the UK half of the team and I left feeling excited yet still a bit nervous about meeting our Bangladeshi counterparts when we arrive. I am certain that, though challenging, my time in Bangladesh will be incredibly rewarding.
