But everything has been submitted, and there is only one component left to my program prior to graduation in the spring – completing my internship!

The total name count is now 800, I added 200 new names including TRĪSTILTIŅŠ and PODNIEKS. Today I am also launching a new project, the Latvian Farm Project.
