Tongabunga!: Group 76 packing list
http://tongabunga.blogspot.com/2010/09/group-76-packing-list.html
Here I will share my experience as a Peace Corps volunteer in the Kingdom of Tonga. Thursday, September 9, 2010. Group 76 packing list. We're all excited for your arrival here in Tonga! Here is my suggested packing list for you. You won’t be able to bring everything but not much is available here and shipping to the other side of the world is expensive so don’t skimp. Volunteers who return home to visit for the holidays have been known to come back with over 100 pounds of baggage. It will be worth it!

Tongabunga!: Learning how to teach
http://tongabunga.blogspot.com/2010/02/learning-how-to-teach.html
Here I will share my experience as a Peace Corps volunteer in the Kingdom of Tonga. Saturday, February 6, 2010. Learning how to teach. I just finished my third week of teaching and I cannot describe how relieved I am to be done. Before the semester begun, I discussed with my counterpart, Tok’a how I would like to begin teaching. We noted that I had no teaching experience and had never observed a Tongan classroom. I would continue teaching more and more and eventually I would be given my own classes.

Tongabunga!: October 2009
http://tongabunga.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Here I will share my experience as a Peace Corps volunteer in the Kingdom of Tonga. Saturday, October 24, 2009. Ahhhhh the internet, how I've missed you. Today is Saturday in Tonga which means it is my only chance to hitch hike into Pangai, the big town in Ha'apai and try to use the painfully slow internet. Since the last time I've been here I found out that the Phillies are going to the World Series again! As well as where I will be working for the next two years. Saturday, October 17, 2009. This is my ...

Tongabunga!: Weekend vacation and a tsunami
http://tongabunga.blogspot.com/2010/03/weekend-vacation-and-tsunami.html
Here I will share my experience as a Peace Corps volunteer in the Kingdom of Tonga. Monday, March 1, 2010. Weekend vacation and a tsunami. This past weekend I traveled with John and Juleigh one island over to the island of Kauvai to visit Blair and enjoy some rest and relaxation on a sparsely inhabited island. Kauai is only a forty-minute boat ride away but is significantly less developed from my island of Lifuka. There are only a few tiny shops the size of newspaper stands and only sell a dozen products.

Tongabunga!: Delicious food!
http://tongabunga.blogspot.com/2010/04/delicious-food.html
Here I will share my experience as a Peace Corps volunteer in the Kingdom of Tonga. Thursday, April 22, 2010. Yummmm is all I can think as I sit in my staff room day dreaming about the delicious Tongan meal I made last night. It was a simple meal it but has become one of my favorites here in Tonga since it is so easy to prepare, inexpensive and delicious. What is this meal you wonder and where can I find the recipe? Ika lolo’i mo me’akai / Succulent fish in coconut milk with potatoes. Add salt as desired.
