though, never thought I would see the day when I would miss Comcast (and
verizon for that matter). I
have been at site 4 weeks now and much has happened. I have settled
into my rondavel and more importantly have noted that the roof is mostly
waterproof. We are transitioning into summer here and with summer comes
the rain. I keep hearing it rains a lot here but have yet to see
anything that serious. The wind can be quite formidable at times but
that is it for now. As far as work goes I have completed my first round
of teacher interviews at Ntalantala, the high school, and will finish
the rest of the interviews at the primary school Ncepheni next week. I
am about to go into Nqutu here soon to get groceries and kerosene. It
is about a 25min combie ride into town from here. Nqutu has everything
you need but nothing you want, as they say around here. The grocery
store is not much different from one you may find in the states and
there are variety stores like Pep and Jetmart that sell all sorts of
stuff. There are also 'china shops' that also seem to sell everything
(again, everything you need, nothing you want). Ill attach some pics to
give you an idea of the area. It may seem rural (and it is) but luckily
it is quite pcv-dense. There are three other PCVs about 5miles due
west, another one 4miles south, and 3 more near Nqutu. Feel free to
engage me with your questions and comments. PEACE
