Madame Toubab or My Life in Peace Corps Mauritania. Friday, June 20, 2008. Day 1: Friday the 13th. What happened in during the night? As for equipment, come to find out that those handy dandy “high tech” sifter (they look like a big can with wire on the bottom) are not used in the villages, that’s only for city folk In the villages, they just tie a mulafa over the tub (see flickr photos) and push the flour through. It all worked. Cheers from here,. Sunday, June 8, 2008. There is also a commercial on loca...

Madame Toubab or My Life in Peace Corps Mauritania. Wednesday, March 11, 2009. Remis is an understatement. Yes, I know it has been a long, long time since I have posted anything. I'd wish I could say that I have been so overloaded with work that I haven't had time. but that would be a lie. Just take a look at my Books Read list.I should add a "movies and series downloaded" list as well. God bless utorrent. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Remis is an understatement. My Photos on Flickr.

Madame Toubab or My Life in Peace Corps Mauritania: On the Road Again
http://madametoubab.blogspot.com/2009/06/on-road-again.html
Madame Toubab or My Life in Peace Corps Mauritania. Sunday, June 21, 2009. On the Road Again. I am finally back in Atar after taking a little farewell tour across the RIM. I scored the best ride ever. I got to tag along in a Peace Corps vehicle all the way out to Aioun and back. They always have A/C, personal space, seat belts and terrific drivers. Given the scorching heat and humidity we encountered, I consider myself quite blessed to have traveled in the big white Land Rover. Subscribe to: Post Comment...

The Longest Journey Begins With A Single Step (The First Of Millions). My supervisor casually asked me how I was doing. A polite question. That's all. Now I'm going to Africa.

Madame Toubab or My Life in Peace Corps Mauritania: April 2014
http://madametoubab.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Madame Toubab or My Life in Peace Corps Mauritania. Saturday, April 19, 2014. Today I attended a Peace Corps event for a send off to 30 or so San Diegans ready to head off for their Peace Corps service. I felt smug because I had earned the right to be blaisse to their angst about their not knowing if they would be accepted; if nominated, where they were going; if invited, what to pack. As I was sitting there I was saddened, disappointed that there was no possibility of anyone heading to Mauritania. She l...

Madame Toubab or My Life in Peace Corps Mauritania. Monday, January 5, 2009. Well, you would have thought I'd seen it all by now but,. Yesterday, I was at the Hotel Mermoz, the place I am consider switching to (away from my darling Hotel la Residence) during Jazz Fest because they have a lovely pool in a tropical setting where I spent much of my time last year. It will be very hot here in May. Answer: he didn't seem to be but he did go back into his stall to shake it off. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
