Last 20 days in Iowa

So, having a 3 month break from my last semester at Central has given me time to get a lot of things done, and be just plain lazy! I stopped working at Fareway about a month ago, and other then that I have been working at the daycare, and babysitting. I guess being lazy also includes going on the mission trip to Reynosa Mexico and spending a week nannying at Disney World, as well as catching up and trying to see friends!

In my last post, I mentioned budgeting, but it sounds like everything will work out perfectly, I have more saved than most people take on average (i think)! However, some random expenses are popping up! A friend told me that the college will give us one roll of toilet paper as a welcoming gift, and after that we have to buy our own! (Toilet paper, along with other toiletries are not common in the culture) So.. I'd guess if anyone wants to send me a care package, I believe my address is:


Ashley Kinkade
Your Dorm Room Number- which I don't know yet

International College

P.O. Box W-99, Yuquan Campus, Zhejiang University

Hangzhou 310027, P.R. China

Keep me in your prayers and wish me luck as I make a 22 hour flight at 6 AM on Feb. 19th!
