eleven.

alright, for those of you who are actually reading this thing religiously, i have some bad news. i will be out of interwebs reach for possibly some time, and will try my best to write. however, on wed, i will be flying to honduras, and my schedule will include a lot of remote places and moving around. first, we will be in zarabanda, a rural community outside of tegucigalpa. then we will move in 1 week to a technical training site for PAM (protected areas management) site, which will be a 7 week experience. there, we will def not have internet, and i will attempt to travel to the nearest internet cafe once a week. but no promises. finally, at the end of september, we will be sent to our final sites, 60% of which have no electricity. basically, i may be out of reach for some time. i will be getting a cell phone on thurs, but i have no idea how it will work. so if i call you, count it luck, and if i dont, dont take it personally. anyway, otherwise there hasnt been much news. training has been the same as usual. if i have any crazy experiences, i will write them as soon as i can. until then. love.

p.s. my friend jessie made a video, of our training days. i dance in it. you may want to watch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnnGN9tDKTg

  3. you'll have to learn how to dance w/o looking at your partner, and without smiling-dancing is serious stuff. Funny, the music, dances and "bars" are so similar to Central Africa - just replace dominoes with mancala and you've got the generic near-the-equator model. I agree with mom...MORE VIDEO PLEASE
