Monthly Update

I haven’t been at a computer for a while and it might be a few months before I can get to another one.  I have been busy trying to learn a foreign language in 10weeks.  The last few weeks have flown by.  Today I was sitting with my host mothers and they were telling how they didn’t want me to leave to my permanent site.  I have really grown to like my host family and will miss them a lot come Sunday when I move out.  I am excited because I am going to a village that has never had any volunteers from Peace Corps.
            Today I got my first outfit back from the tailor.  It is a blue and white checkered shirt, which he copied one of my pearl snap shirts after, along with dark blue dress pants.  He did a phenomenal job on it, my mother would be proud.
            I wish I had more time to talk about everything I have seen and experience here.  Most of the stories are literally unbelievable.  I have already seen baboons, monkeys and two differently survey crews working, this was all in the same day.
