My adventures as a peace corps volunteer. In the islamic republic of mauritania. Wednesday, July 29, 2009. Just when you thought. It was all going so well. Our interrupted-service folks cleared out of Mauritania, and while it was quite sad, we were all moving forward. Those of us who had chosen to stay were renewed with energy to face the tough year ahead, albeit with reduced numbers. The worst was behind us. or so we thought. Spent hours and hours coordinating the logistics. He had collected matelas.

afrique-in' out: Picking up the pieces
http://jacintherim.blogspot.com/2009/07/picking-up-pieces.html
My adventures as a peace corps volunteer. In the islamic republic of mauritania. Wednesday, July 15, 2009. Picking up the pieces. Unexpectedly, it has been a very busy couple of weeks. A total of 20 PCVs from the 71 in my class decided to "interrupt" their service and head home, and in their wake I've been all over the place helping to pick up the pieces. We each came to this country with an 80-pound luggage limit - but you wouldn't believe how much stuff one can accumulate in a year! See you soon =D.
