So, we’re still here, the internet connectivity has just not been great. Our second week has been fine, we’re in good health, but both of us have been hitting walls this week – as have most of our stagemates. We just reach our fill at times of speaking French, eating strange foods, bucket baths, etc. Usually we’ve bounced back by the next day, but sometimes it’s a challenge. We’re so glad to be going through training with a group of people who understand exactly how we feel, and there’s always someone who can commiserate and encourage. There have been several current volunteers who have come into town to help in our training, and they all assure us that training is the hardest part of service. We’re all ready to get to our posts, cook our own food, and have our own space! Eight weeks to go…
Next week the Education trainees will find out where they will be posted and go on a site-visit, and the following week the Small Enterprise Development trainees will go, so we will be apart for those two weeks. Our director has said he will arrange for us to be together for our anniversary though! And we’re very excited to find our where we’ll be living for the next two years!
