Ms. W's Travels: August 2007

http://mswstravels.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html

Wednesday, August 29, 2007. A day in the life. I am far from fluent, but am slowly but surely learning new things everyday. My training group especially likes games in class. For example, today we played a board game that required a different language related task on each square that our piece landed on. We are also big fans of throwing a ball around while conjugating verbs. I think the games are good because they force us to think quickly. Tuesday, August 21, 2007. They are putting in new water pipes in...

Ms. W's Travels: Spring? Maybe?

http://mswstravels.blogspot.com/2008/03/spring-maybe.html

Friday, March 7, 2008. So, it being March, and I being from the American Northeast, I will not say that I have survived my first Bulgarian winter just yet. I think the places where I have lived in the states have prepared me well for the fits and starts of spring, that may happen here. OHbefore I sign off, if you are reading this anywhere in Europe and you like birds, being a nature geek, being outside or the arrival of nicer weather, you should log onto www.springalive.net.

Service is the rent we pay for the privilege of living on this earth." -Shirley Chisholm. Wednesday, September 17, 2008. Summer is a great time of year no matter where you are, unless you are in. The morning opens with a cool crisp breeze which quickly retreats and reveals a heat so thick, you could cut it with a knife. I always get lost in my summers. Whether it is on. Beach with the skyline at your back, or the rocky shores of the great. First trip to the sea coast. Coast Started off in. 6)5 Leva beer ...

Saturday, February 2, 2008. It's baby season :). So, it's baby season. Since October I have been to almost 10 mulitfas. Everyone makes sure to tell me exactly when we are having them because I love them so much! A few of us sitting around the table enjoying the yummy food and probably talking about how and why I don't eat meat. That's halva there to the left and the rice concoction in the middle.

Service is the rent we pay for the privilege of living on this earth." -Shirley Chisholm. Wednesday, August 29, 2007. Sorry about the long time in between post. I have been so busy with things here in good old Bulgaria. Any way, I think I left off last time talking about meeting my family for the first time. What a big event! I have been in Bulgaria for about 4 weeks now and have been leaving with my family for about 3. Man, time does fly. I can't believe I have been here that long already. They gave us ...

Ms. W's Travels: My Best Day Yet!

http://mswstravels.blogspot.com/2008/03/my-best-day-yet.html

Friday, March 14, 2008. My Best Day Yet! So, just a quick one on what I think was my best day yet as a Peace Corps Volunteer. On my way to work the trees looked like this:. Then I had what is arguable one of the best lunches in Bulgaria, called Surmi. Little bundles of rice and meat wrapped up in grape leaves and steamed. Mine were served with yogurt. There are vegetarian versions and versions with cabbage as well, all delcious. There is no operetta theater in Houston, unbelievable. Lake Jackson, TX.
