Part 2 – Swag, Swag, Swag!!! (Jan 31-Feb 1st)

I’m starting to settle in here now and am figuring out the ways of the world in Sochi. I have my accreditation and my uniform, and I’m all set to go. See my second blog posting at: http://dirkinsochi.wordpress.com/2014/02/07/swag-swag-swag/

Part 1 – And I’m Off (Jan 29-31st)

Having volunteered at the 2010 Winter Olympics and being quite heavily involved in cross country skiing and officiating, I decided to see if I could volunteer for the 2014 Olympics in Sochi. I applied online, had an interview over Skype and was eventually accepted. Here is my first post about my 2014 Olympic experience: http://dirkinsochi.wordpress.com/
