Hey guys!
After meeting all of you last night and having an opportunity to talk about our upcoming adventure, I can honestly say that I am extremely excited for this summer! I think we have quite an amazing experience lying right in front of us. With that being said, I'll begin with a brief introduction...
My name is Mario Moreno, I am a sophomore political science major and am considering an economics minor. I was born in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico but currently reside in one of Chicago's many suburbs. I've spent over a decade living here in the United States and have always wanted to return to Latin America for a variety of reasons, among which perfecting my Spanish figures prominently. Yet, that is not the only reason I am looking forward to our Chile experience. I am tremendously excited about the NGO I will be partnering with: Adopta a un hermano/a; as well as our 3 day weekends which I presume will be spent in a number of ways.
The truth of the matter is that this trip has the potential to be quite amazing and I am extremely glad to be sharing it with all of you.

Mario

I should be studying for finals right now, but really, what better time to introduce myself?
I'm Annie Schetinnikova, a Public Policy major and an Econ minor and a hesitant Statistics minor (I would need to take Math 32... which does not seem like fun and it was something I had hoped to avoid while at Duke). I was born in Kazan, Russia and moved to the U.S. about 13 years ago (I think). Now I live in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, about 30 minutes away from NYC.
I am definitely very excited for Chile! I think it's shaping up to be a trip of a lifetime and I'm looking forward to working at Accion Emprendedora after hearing so much about it.
