Yet ANOTHER new town.


Top: My host family's compound :)
Bottom: Me with one of my host brothers... it is surprisingly easy to bike with someone sitting on your bike rack.





First I am going to apologize...french keyboards are not my friend so I am going to keep postings short.
We have received our new host families and am living with an advanced french speaker. Our family is LARGE... Muslim... 5 wives .... 35 children ...and super nice!!!!
The city we are in now has never hosted PC training before so the children are WAY TOO excited about us being here.... they follow us everywhere and just grab onto you... hand wrist arm whatever they can grab and is getting old fast but ca va aller.
I have started my local language which is Moore.... this is the language spoken by the Moosi which is about 60 percent of the population. I don't feel as though my french is up to par to be learning another lang but alas.... I am. This also means I can swear in which will happen in less than 1 month.

AUGUST 27




Me cultivating

Food: I ate to (pronounced toe) for the first time with my host family and we will just say it is not my food of choice but edible.

Lastly, my next goal is to add pictures!!!

also it has been raining a lot ... so god is blessing the rains down in Africa!!
