Mini Update

Quick Update: I found out that I will be spending my two years in the NorthWest in the region of Louga (I’ll write more about it soon)

Tomorrow morning I am heading out with three other volunteers to stay in a village semi-close to my site (so I’ll be without internet for a bit)

I achieved an intermediate low on my language proficiency test (by-passing three language levels J)

Also if anyone is planning on sending me a package at any point, here are a few things that I would greatly appreciate and be incredibly ecstatic to receive ;)

a. Plain Hanes T-shirts (white, black and any color in between)

b. A LARGE nalgene bottle

c. Almonds/dried fruit/anything with lots of protein and fiber

d. Gatorade/crystal light powder

e. Pens, notebooks and novels

f. Toilet paper J

g. Stretchy big cloth headbands

h. Newspapers, news magazines…

i. Sports bras/basketball shorts, Capri spandex…

j. And things I’ve noticed that are needed/wanted in my village: soccer balls, pinnies, cones, French to English and Arabic to English books, notebooks
