Join me as I enter the Peace Corps and move to Swaziland for 27 months to teach AIDS/HIV education and forward women's empowerment!
Sunday, June 3, 2012
Hello! Ok, so here's the scoop. I will be leaving Des Moines on Monday June 25th (pushed back from what used to be the 3rd) for Philadelphia. I am going to see some family there before my orientation on the 26th and on the 27th I will head to Africa. With the other Peace Corps invitees, I will fly from New York to Johannesburg, South Africa and then take a bus to Swaziland. I will have training for three months in a village outside of Matsapha, Swaziland before I receive my placement. Then... wherever I end up... I will remain for two years! I am armed with the Yellow Fever vaccination and will receive about a dozen more in Philly. Thanks for keeping up with me! I will really try to post on here soon, but my internet access in Swaziland will most likely be limited to once every 1-2 months (depending on how far I am from the nearest town with an internet cafe and my available modes of transportation). So unil then, Sala kahle!!
