Hey everyone,
Just a quick update today to let everyone know that I am healthy and safe. On the health front I've lost 10lbs in the last month so I need to watch that. As far as safety goes though everything is dandy, my family here is the best protection I have against being a stranger in a new land.
For anyone looking to join the Peace corps with the desire to have independent housing, I have one thing to say. It's fine to want and be in an independent house, but having a host family gives you a much better way to integrate into your community, so don't take it for granted. Also if you are reading this from my old Highschool and will be on a future video call, I look forward to hearing from you!
I'll leave you all with this!
