Back from South Africa

Hey there, Im now back from my medical leave to Pretoria, S. Africa. Everything is good, my results are also good, there is no proplem. It was a nice vacation though. I stayed in a beautiful B & B and ate some good food and visited a bird sanctuary. But mostly I watched T.V. in my bed in my room... It was sweet. Now im bout to head back to my site for a few weeks then I will be back for mid-service training and maybe head to Blantyr for some dance party.

So my project is now up on this website... www.peacecorps.gov ...please, please, please donate

Love yall-------------Ja-chi

Hey peeps,

Just wanted to give you an idea of where I live. It's comfortable and I really enjoy it. I have an extra bed if your interested!! So I just came from a permaculture training with 2 guys from my village and it was really great. We learned a lot, drank some good cood beers and they cooked up some great food right from the gardens. So I have 2 days until I leave for S. Africa. Those of you worried...DONT. Everythings cool. So I have nothing really new to say. Keep it Nyatwa!
