Hi, again sorry for the incredible delay, internet in this 3rd world country is not reliable (who would have thought?)
Well, first things first: I am finally at my 'site' where I will be for the next 2 years & I'm officially a Peace Corps Volunteer!!!!
I have pictures for the ceremony that I hope to post later this week (and include more info about my site) but I have a bit of catching up to do. To sum of up I finished up my time with my host family and I passed my language test!!
Below are some pictures from the end of homestay in Hoima.

Docus, me & Frank! My awesome neighbors at the top of the mountain |

Another climb up the mountain. This time with Ravi and this stubborn cow. |

Rhino trekking in Masindi. There are only a handful left in the world, we saw about 6! |

Ravi & I went to the Mabale Tea factory, a few kilometers from where I live, with some of my colleagues. It's really good tea : ) |

Me as we started our descent. |
So that's that. I finally got to town with my computer, which is now cracked : (, to upload this.
Soon I want to upload pictures from my swearing in ceremony. Then I'll take some pictures of my house and the village I live in so ya'll can see where I live!
I've also started teaching and I really enjoy it. I'm getting better with the language because that's how I communicate with my students! I'm also getting along very well with my colleagues and people in the community! Still loving life : )
Peace & love xoxo
