In just a few hours I will begin a journey with a group of my college peers that I am so excited to be a part of! This will be a week of many firsts: my first service trip with NSU, my first time visiting New Orleans, and hopefully my first time helping with the construction ends of Habitat for Humanity/ Camp Restore.
New Orleans is a city that I know nearly nothing about, but I know that despite living in Florida and experiencing some busy hurricane seasons, none of us can imagine the experiences of the inhabitants of that city during Hurricane Katrina. I expect to get to understand that part of history a little bit better this week. I know I will be challenged, but I am eager to learn more about the people of New Orleans, experience the city, and create lasting memories with a group of friends.
