Mail can be sent to the Ouagadougou office and it will reach me, sometimes apparently in 3 weeks, at most 4 months.

I am leaving today for a village near Ouagadougou for my 3 months of training, so I will rarely be on. I am fine though, we have an excellent medical supply kit and a constant avenue of communication with the health admin and several other contacts, so I will actually never be isolated. Everyone is reachable by phone 24/7 and I have an extra phone battery.
I will be meeting my host family in about 6 hours. Super excited to get to know my future family; by the time I am done with training, I will be able to live anywhere in BF essentially.
Hopefully I will be able to post something in the next month. Bye everyone!
Should be sending a package soon. the sun glasses came and we'll send your pancho. Can't wait for stories
ReplyDeleteHey Barry, good news. Your glasses are ready and are being shipped (in a care package) tomorrow ~ probably via USPS. There's a few more goodies with it. We're thinking about you every day. Hope things are going well there. Can't wait to hear more about your host family. I'm leaving with the Egypt team in 3 days. I will try and call you when it's later in the day. LY~mom
ReplyDeleteBarry, I'm really proud of you...enjoy the adventure!
