1 month in

I've been here for just over a month now, and things are going pretty well.  I'm living in a small village in the south and it's been a great experience.  There's not running water or electricity - or bread, for that matter - but that's been the easy part to get used to.  I don't have a lot of time, as usual, but I think that I will soon.  We find out on Tuesday where we'll be going for the next two years, and then we go visiting!  I'm really excited to find out and then go see it.  I'll probably be somewhere in the north, but I really don't have any idea.  For now, we're in Kaedi at the training center - Camp Africa.  They feed us good food and I love being here because there are lots of people and I can use the internet and charge my Ipod and other fancy things!  I've gotten some clothes made, so now I look sufficiently ridiculous, don't worry.  More to come later.
