Welcome to a documented experience of my year as an English Teacher and Community Worker in Java, Indonesia! For the next eleven months, I will be serving with Mennonite Central Committee's Serving and Learning Together program, learning the language, eating the foods, and fully immersing myself in the Indonesian culture.

Looking forward to sharing my experiences with you! Happy reading!

New Update Coming Soon!!

Hi Everyone!!

It has been so long since I've posted, a testament to the craziness of these last few weeks. I was told that after Easter, time really picks up, and that has definitely proven to be the case. Between post-Easter Easter activities (the actual date of holidays doesn't really seem to matter all that much here- I was hanging up the Easter decorations in the TK two days after Easter weekend), a surprise trip to Jogja/Solo with an MCC worker from Laos, and the arrival (FINALLY!) of Andrew (my boyfriend), there just hasn't been time to sit down and write the blog post that I have been wanting to write.

We leave first thing tomorrow morning for a week-long getaway to Gili Trawangan, a small island (no motorized vehicles allowed) off the coast of Lombok (a bigger island that is just off the coast of Bali). We're taking a bus there (over 24 hours. But only $40!), and there is still much to do before then, so I will have to leave a blog post for another week, but I just wanted to let you know that I am STILL HERE, and that I will definitely send you an update once I have internet again after our trip.

I hope you have all had great weeks, and that life is just going great for you!!
Have an awesome day!

Love,
Ellery
