In less than a week, we will be on the ground in
Oaxaca!! Our plans include a week of working with the children at
Casa Hogar. We will be there to play with the children, maybe paint another mural, take care of odd jobs and most importantly, act as chaperones for the children on field trips around Oaxaca. Our help will be invaluable as these children get to experience all the amazing sites, culture and history Oaxaca has to offer.

Our students will also get experience what it is like on the other side of the teacher's desk....By teaching English and holding a reading event at the elementary school in Ocotlan!! In between, we will visit
Monte Alban, eat more
Oaxacan cuisine than you can imagine, linger in the
Zocolo and visit the artisans that make Oaxaca such an authentically Mexican place to visit.
Please take time to check back, comment and stay connected with us as we put Watkinson's mission "to shape our world and the world around us" into practice!!
Bon Voyage to everyone! We await your reports eagerly. I really appreciate being able to get a little window in on all you do while in Oaxaca. Enjoy. --Karen B
