Well, I've just finished my exams and there's a lot to do before I leave... Vaccinations, Visa, Training, Fundraising... I should probably start at the beginning: I am going to Ecuador to spend 6 months designing and constructing rural water supply infrastructure. I was selected by Engineers without Borders (EWB) to work with PRODECI, a non-governmental organisation in Ecuador which aims to improve the quality of life for people in the remote mountains in the north of the country.
I have always wanted to work in development engineering and am thrilled to be able to get started straight after my studies. For now though there is a huge amount to be done before I get on the aeroplane on the 2nd July so I'd best get on with it!
