Jambo Sana
So I've now been in Dar Es Salaam for three days and everything is wonderful thus far. The Peace Corps has been keeping my group of 40 and I pretty busy and isolated as we adjust to the program and the country. The Peace Corps staff is wonderful, so helpful and nice. I have been quite impressed by how well everything has been run so far. My group is really great. Everyone is really interesting, excited, and really nice. People are from all over the US, most are around my age but there are a few volunteers over the age of 60.
Tomorrow we are beginning the journery to Morogoro where we will begin our homestay and officially begin our pre-service training where we will be getting intensive Kiswahili and cross-cultural learning. I'm really excited and so happy to be here. It's going to be a wonderful two years. Anyway, i have to get off because there is a whole gaggle of other volunteers waiting to get on this computer.
stay in touch and i'll post another soon as a get a chance
