This is probably due more to your inability to post while road tripping in the land of no infrastructure than my punctuality. <br /><br />And Aunt Sis, I can tell you now that that beer was worth risking life and limb. No more context required.<br /><br />Also kudos on you first post for a random stranger... sharing you pain and wisedom to the benefit of future PCV's everywhereAnanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1171370153810017375.post-61243353541824263262009-12-03T15:11:00.442+00:002009-12-03T15:11:00.442+00:00Hello to Alyssa (and her parents),

I love how candid you are about things and it has actually helped me feel better about what the experience could entail.<br /><br />Sharyl - I would be interested in your parental perspective on things. Our first reaction was absolute fear for our daughter's safety but the more we learn about the Peace Corps the better we feel. If you'd like to chat I can be reached on email at lmjanz@gmail.com. I'd like to know some basic logistical things like sending packages, etc.<br /><br />Best of luck to you all in your continuing Peace Corps journey!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02488333131835809099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1171370153810017375.post-73824481242239780622009-12-01T03:13:25.608+00:002009-12-01T03:13:25.608+00:00Questions: Please describe a "bush" roa...Questions: Please describe a "bush" road. How is it different from others. <br />Why do you think the woman wouldn't tell you where her husband was from. Could you understand her Arab dialect?<br />I am still deciding whether a beer is worth risking your safety....who did you meet and what was the bar like Kaolack Senegal.I need context!Sharylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17506947538520881474noreply@blogger.com
