a midwesterner's adventures in northern california

An Illinois native, I just moved to Marin County, California for an 11 month AmeriCorps internship with SPAWN, a watershed protection non-profit. I've lived my whole life in Illinois and am absolutely a midwesterner, so this is a new phase of my life and a huge adventure for me. Read on!

time flies

just over 2 months before AmeriCorps is over.

just over 2 months before i pack up and head to argentina and chile.

i have 2 months to plan where i'm going, learn spanish, sell my car, and work a million hours at the restaurant (on top of minimum 40 hrs/week @ americorps) to make mad cash.

oh. shit.

(also i am starting a garden in my friend's backyard, we're working on an urban farming collective within SF! so i have an unfunded project to return to post-trip.)

Hey if you have time before you go.. E-mail me at iccnorcal@yahoo.com. I am starting an InterCorps Council for AmeriCorps members living in Northern California. I currently live in San Fran, I moved here from Chicago. I am trying to spread the word about the Northern California InterCorps Council and this blog came up while googling 'AmeriCorps and san francisco' or something!
