I sent off my application for a volunteer assignment in Cambodia in June 08. And although it's been a bumpy old road getting here, I'm so glad I finally made it to Adelaide and to the Pre Departure Training.
It was a fantastic 4 days of absorbing the loads of information on offer (including what bed bug bites look like, how many of us Vida's are already out there in SthEast Asia and the Pacific, how to capacity build and that you will definitely get diarrhea at least once)
And best of all getting to meet the other lovely Vida's and in particular, those that are going to be in the same country as you and (lucky me) even in the same town! I think everyone got to feel a little less nervous knowing there's some fun caring people to share the excitement, fun, frustrations and hopefully not too often - tears with.
