New blogs & posts

The GSE team is up and running, only 31 days before departure. Max has really gotten the blog bug and is making posts on the different events happening pre trip.

A new blog was just created for Matylda Tomaszczyk http://mtomaszczyk.blogspot.com/ . She'll be posting her experiences from Poland once settled.

If you'd like to learn more about where your Foundation dollars go, here's an opportunity to see it in action. Sign up for Feedblitz on both blogs to follow their experiences.
