Greetings from Thies! Just got back from a day and night on the beach... International service definately has its perks! All the trainees pitched in and we rented a house on the beach for the night; enjoying the water, a few Gazelles (cheap Senegalese beer), and the good company.

Beach House!

The Peace Corps as a whole has a very youthful attitude surrounding it, which makes for some good times. As a whole our stage (training group) has been getting along very well, I really lucked out and got placed in Senegal with some great people.

So I should be spending the next week back in Thienaba with my host family, getting in some much needed French practice. Less than a month untill swear in! Its already flying by!

We call her meggie or meg-pie her college friends call her "T" because she use to play soccer and had two Megan's. Thanks for the picture she hasn't sent any yet. Her aunt and I read several peace corp blogs, we hope no one minds. You are in different world that I bet some people couldn't function in. Take care of our Meggie
