Well after a hectic day, I'm actually in the final stages of finishing up packing. I might get a couple hours of sleep after all. Although I'm extremely sad to leave Seattle, I'm super excited to head out to Niger later this week. Tomorrow I head out to Philly for a few days of PC training, then it's on to Africa via Paris (unfortunately only three hours there!). I don't know too much about my job quite yet, but the title is Natural Resource Management, doing agricultural work. A big part will be working to create more crop sustainability, since Niger goes through huge periods of drought. I "enjoyed" my last day of this cold, rainy, windy Seattle today as Niger's weather is
hot(ranging from 80-120 degrees) and
sunny all the time.
After philly the next three months will be spent in a village a little ways outside of the capital with other PC volunteers. I don't know too much about it, but i also won't have internet access until I'm done training, so this won't be updated for a little while. However, I can get mail,
Lulu M, PCV
Corps de la Paix
B.P. 10537
Niamey, Niger
Please send ridiculous amounts. And email too, of course. Well, I'm out for now, I'll miss you all and please keep in touch. This girl's headed to Africa....
