Back to the Internet! Woot! Training is almost over, thank goodness. All thirty of us trainees are staying in the new transit house, hence the Internet.
It's actually quite amazing the things that have suddenly become normal, many of which people at home would never believe. However, I will share a quick list:
free-roaming cows, goats, sheep and chickens
roosters in the morning (and all day)
communal food bowl
eating with your hands
biking in sand
bathing out of a bucket
fetching water and carrying it on my head
getting laughed at while carrying water on my head
dodging donkey carts
drinking attaya
brooms with no handles
oranges, lemons and papaya straight off the tree (mango season is almost here!)
cashew fruit (America you are missing out)
There are many more, I just can't think of them.
Thanks for the two letters! The sender knows who he/she is. No packages yet though (hint hint).
Swear is in a couple weeks, yippee! We will be visiting our sites soon, will bring that update later.
