Updates and stories from my service in Mali
Bamako Bulletin, Colleen (BBC): July 2010
http://colleeninmali.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Bamako Bulletin, Colleen (BBC). Updates and stories from my service in Mali. This blog does not reflect the opinions and policies of the Peace Corps, the University of South Florida (USF), the U.S. government, or the government of Mali. Friday, July 16, 2010. I've become mostly fluent in an African Language, Bambara. I've mastered eating with my hands. I'm a lot more comfortable bargaining and get upset if someone cheats me even 50 fcfa (5 cents.). Squatting has become normal. Wrap skirts all the time.

Matt in West Africa (Mali). Note: content is solely the opinion of the author and does not represent Peace Corps. Saturday, January 29, 2011. S is for SIDA. This past week a bunch of Volunteers and I from the Segou region jumped in a mini-bus and took a 5 hour ride to a fellow Volunteer's site in Dogofry, north of Segou. She had organized an AIDS awareness bike tour and asked other Volunteers to come up and help spread the good news about a terrible disease. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). S is for SIDA.

I can definitely relate to being disappointed in myself for not having figured out the local cultural quirks yet! I just cant let go of that US quirk of keeping compromises and assuming other people will, too. Ha. Thanks for sharing. Many saludos and well wishes from Guatemala!

Matt in West Africa (Mali). Note: content is solely the opinion of the author and does not represent Peace Corps. Monday, July 26, 2010. A Rainy Friday in Village. We've had a decent dry spell in village considering that it's supposed to be prime time for rain. The last few weeks have brought clouds, wind, lighting, and thunder, but no rain. This means most people have been sitting around a lot waiting for the rains to show up so they can plant millet. The young men ate at the butiki and the kids ate at ...

Monday, August 23, 2010. First Day of School. It's amazing what a difference a year can make! Motherhood is a blissful thing! See another great smile hidden behind the paci!

Matt in West Africa (Mali): Less Than Exciting

Matt in West Africa (Mali). Note: content is solely the opinion of the author and does not represent Peace Corps. Monday, February 28, 2011. As you can imagine, neither of these documentaries do much to create a mood of happiness and joy. Rather, they are much the opposite, and present a message of how ridiculous and terrible humanity can be sometimes. It got me to thinking about my present situation and the world in general.

England eh?
A Canadian girl's adventure. Saturday, 1 March 2008. A visit from a funny Canuk and other short updates. I also had a chance to meet up with my old friend Marc who was visiting London while on a trip through Europe. It's been over 4 years since I saw him last in Vancouver, so there was plenty to catch up on when we met Thursday night for some drinks in the city. I have added a photo below of me and Marc in London, and also a few photos that were taken with friends earlier this month. Marc and me in Covent.

Follow Colleen as she spends 2 months in Thailand Summer 2012! Distributing birth control supplies: Family planning in the field. These chickens from our yard really enjoy spending time inside the library and house. We spent all evening tonight chasing them outside of where we live, where they also happened to be casually going to the bathroom on the floor. Ma Ma distributes birth control pills and keeps a list of who receives them (BWU returns every month to restock the women.). It was not glamorous, no...
