Just a few days left...

Hey Everyone!

As you all know, I am leaving for Mexico in a few days to study abroad for a month. I have decided to keep in touch with family and friends from home by periodically posting what I've been up to in this blog. I'm sure that I am going to be very busy between lectures, field research, and yes, papers and exams, but I will try to update it every couple of days. The school itself updates its website every two weeks with details from the research that I will be doing. If you want to check that out, the website is http://www.fieldstudies.org/.
If you want to contact me while I'm abroad, I will be checking my e-mail frequently (coburne@bc.edu) and will also be able to use Skype and AIM. Supposedly, my cell phone will also work, but it is fairly expensive to use. If you want to mail letters, the address for the school is:

Center for Coastal Studies/AP 15
Puerto San Carlos, BCS
CP 23740
MEXICO

All letters need to be marked "airmail" and will take about 2-3 weeks to reach me. I cannot receive packages while I am abroad.

So, that's about it for now. I hope to hear from everyone while I am gone! Talk to you soon!
