Mexico to Belize

And so it begins... After two weeks of preparation without time to stop or think or breathe we are off. We can now focus on the enormous task at hand, driving our 1974 Cortez bus the entire length of Mexico to Belize.

To provide a few introductions, my name is Greg, a little over one year ago I started a little non-profit with a group of friends to attempt to do something about the overwhelming poverty and neglect among children in Nuevo Laredo. One year later, we are curious to see where else we can involve ourselves to be agents of positive change. I will be joined by 6 of my closest friends, Michael, Kelly, Daniel, Alex, Travis, and Jon (who you have already read about on here). You will hear about their experiences and perspectives as this trip progresses.

The bus is actually on its way to meet Michael and I in Nuevo Laredo (little car trouble in San Antonio). Michael and I will be catching a bus to Veracruz. Michael and I have a much longer journey planned to continue south from Belize to Costa Rica doing more Full Hearts work..

And so it begins... We could not have gotten here without your generous support. So please keep up with our crazy adventures on this blog.

With a full heart,
gregorio
