Well, it’s been two weeks at site and I think things are
progressing well. I’ve already found an umodozi (tailor) and got a new shirt
made. I can make it to the market and back without getting lost, and I found a
good bakery and a boutique that sells big bottles of Coca-Cola. I’ve also met
with my headmaster a few times and I am looking forward to the school year.
And, of course, I’ve had the pleasure of cat-sitting Lucy.
She is quite the snuggler.
Also, those two weeks included Christmas. I honestly don’t
remember Christmas Eve or Christmas that well, as I was hit with a bad bout of diarrhea
and stomach cramps. I spent most of the holidays in bed, but I did travel on
the 23rd to see other PCVs in my region. We had a good meal and
marveled at the beautiful Lake Kivu.
And so 2017 is coming to a close. I hope everyone has a
wonderful 2018!
