I've been extremely bad at keeping this blog updated since Christmas and as our days are numbered in Bologna, here's my best effort at sharing what we've been up to...
Just prior to Ian's finals wrapping up in Bologna in January the earthquake struck Haiti. Luckily, most of Ian's co-workers survived and the main PIH clinics outside the city as well as some emergency tent clinics they set up were able to (and continue to) provide support there. Given the amount of time Ian has spent in Haiti over the last few years, he decided to take his winter break volunteering with the procurement team. He made a quick visit to the Boston office, spent the majority of his time setting up a new depot in Miami to coordinate shipments to Port-au-Prince (PAP) & then wrapped up the trip with about a week in PAP. Here are a
few pics that he put together from his time there.
Meanwhile, I did what any good lady of leisure does and went on our previously planned trip to Morocco...
I attended the SAIS Austrian Ball in Vienna at the Hofsburg Palace with friends from school.
And spent Valentine's Day in Venice checking out the Carnevale. Rough life, I know.
We also had a few visitors:
Amanda & Lauren came and helped us with our Haiti Fundraiser "Charitivo" (Charity + Aperitivo)that raised over 2700€!:
and my mama came to visit:
To wrap up February & kick off March, Ian went to Korea, I had a birthday, & that's about it 'til our spring break trip, which I'll post soon!
Miss you all!
