Almost There!!

So Richard and I did our site visit to Gumare last week. We only had a few days there because it takes 10-12 hours to get to Gumare from our training site. We overnighted in Maun on the way there to break up the trip. Our house is very cute. It is a government house with two bedrooms, electricity, hot running water, a porch, and a yard. We even have a pack of dogs who serve as our escorts around the community. Once we move in, we also planning to get a cat, which we heard are good for killing snakes. We met our counterparts, who are both very nice and knowledgeable. Both of our jobs are in the Rural Administration Center- we will be in the office most of the time (which is an unusual Peace Corps job). I will be working with the orphan care coordinator for the Okavango sub-district and Richard will be working with the DAC. We are now back at our training site, finishing our last week and half of training. We swear in on June 18th. We can't wait!!!
