One Year!

I can't believe that one year ago today, I was arriving in Philadelphia, getting ready to start Peace Corps The Gambia. Eating my last American meal, making my last phone calls, meeting lots of new people... It's one of those times where you feel like you've been at it forever, but also like you just started.
This year has been really great, and I can't believe that I'm almost halfway through my service.  In fact its a little terrifying- I'm still just getting started!!!
So, lots of love to everyone I said goodbye to a year ago. Thanks for the support. And again thanks for not crying in front of me!

  2. Thank you for taking us along with you on your journey. I certainly enjoy all the posts and pictures. You don't seem so far away when I see your pictures and talk with you. I miss you so much and am VERY proud of you. Since I didn't cry when you left, and believe me it took all I had not to cry, can I cry when you come home? I love you!!!! Mom
