Hello All!
Welcome to my blog! For the next two years I will be living somewhere in Namibia and serving as an English teacher with Peace Corps. Rather than fill the inboxes of my esteemed "Adventures in Africa" listserve with oh-so-interesting updates on my life in Namibia, I've opted to open a blog instead. This blog will keep you updated on how successful I am at providing comic relief for the locals as a result of frequent language and cultural misunderstandings, as well as any pertinient adventures. Electricity permitting, I should be able to post at least bi-weekley. I leave October 29 for ? for "Staging" and on November 1st I'm off to my new home.
